It's because you use <xsl:copy>.
From the spec (XSLT, 7.5 Copying)
"Instantiating the xsl:copy element creates a copy of the current node. 
The namespace nodes of the current node are automatically copied as well, 
but the attributes and children of the node are not automatically copied."

A workaround is to create the element with <xsl:element>:

<xsl:element name="{name()}" namespace="{namespace-uri()}">
   ....
</xsl:element>

Ciao,
