All I know to do is to patiently keep trying. It can take quite a while for a bird to try new foods. Have you tried eating something in front of them and acting very excited about it?
I've also heard of mixing some of their seed with pellets that you want to give them and use a bit of warm water to mix them up and smash them into a ball. The theory is that they have to eat some pellets to get to the seed they like. Maybe you could try that with the trail mix you make?
