A grey dot means they can't be added and, therefore, haven't been. The Shuffle playlist in iTunes doesn't show what is on the Shuffle, it only shows what iTunes is preparing to put into it.

First, check your iPS has the space. Is it in Disk mode with all space allocated to that? I'm not sure you can even do that, but it seems like it should be possible.

Next, check the format of your tracks to make sure that they are ones supported by the Shuffle.
