I know that this is not your question, but I suggest that you take 
another approach. You will eventually have a long table which is longer 
than a single page, and combining that with :float sideways is not going 
to help you (did not work for me in the past). I attach a working 
example that you might find useful. It includes the implementation with 
booktabs, if you want.

I think that the only thing that you are missing is loading booktabs: 
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{booktabs}
