Hi,
(Thank you for forwarding this to me Valerie, I did in fact miss.)

You must provide two additional arguments to csVolcano.  You need to specify which two sample for which you would like to plot the log fold change, since this is a pairwise comparison plot.

Please try something like the following:

cuff<-readCufflinks()
gene <- genes(cuff)
v<-csVolcano(gene, "sampleA", "sampleB")
v


I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Loyal
