That sounds promising, I note that in your suggested diagram you have also connected the HV enable to the same ground - was that in order to first resolve the glitches before moving on to using the HV control (which has worked fine thus far)? I can connect the HV output ground to the Smart Socket Array Ground, which is the same point as the 5V supply ground and Data signal ground - is that right? I am treading on uncertain ground here (absolutely no pun intended) - where rules of which I am unaware are coming in to play!
