I posted a solution which worked for me last year. Here I post it again:
"I had the same problem and solved it. I file joint return and my wife's name is ahead of mine on all the tax forms including 1040. When I used my credit card to purchase an additional state, the site had problem authorizing the card. I then used my wife's credit card and completed the purchase without any problem. "
The same solution worked for e-filing.
