Yes, set the wheel in the frame and remove the quick release. Look for the axle passing beyond the dropout face(s). A number of times I have seen this, most often with Campagnolo gran sport dropouts, (they are thinner) or the Vertical ones which are also thinner. If this is the case the quick release will be not providing the proper force.
