It looks to me like you need to set the true heading -- the magnetic one is a convenience. The code in flight.cxx ties "/orientation/heading-deg" to the get/set_Psi_deg() functions, which are what YASim (at least, and no doubt the other FDMs) reads to initialize the orientation at the start of each iteration.
