The question answered below is old please refer to Pkosta's answer which provides more accurate answer ...

You have to put CalendarId value as 3 instead of 1 which is default birthday calendar. e.g.

 values.Put(CalendarContract.Events.InterfaceConsts.CalendarId, 1);

change it to

values.Put(CalendarContract.Events.InterfaceConsts.CalendarId, 3);

It solved the same issue for me.
