Default Pea Seed Just Rot

My first year of vegetable gardening I put mangetout seeds into the soil
and got a lovely crop.
But nowadays germination is slow and never eventually exceeds 40%;
examination of the misses turns up brown rotten peas.
So this year I sowed into pots and put in a propagator - nice warm soil so
should to well? But same result.
Anyone having same problem or better luck?
