This is sounding more like a hardware issue with the encoder signals. Have you tried the suggestion with small capacitors on the Y axis index signals?
I will have to check again, but I think I had it working 100% reliably once I updated EMC and grounded the encoder shield, with either sign of HOME_LATCH_VELOCITY. > Every once in a while I will get a random following error report > while homing. I was seeing these occasionally, too, before the software update and fixing the encoder shield. I have not gotten any since.
