this is your problem, not a latex one ...
when you add your margin note _direct_ before the last word,
than the parbox of the margin and the word are a unit(!) and
hyphenation is not possible!
a margin should always appear as a "word", means space before
_and_ space behind, than all works well.
a margin note appears with the top in the line of the \margin
command.
