Some time has passed, but finally I found a solution (or rather: workaround??): I needed to do "echo 1 > strobe" for the ds2408 which didn't set its latch bits. Can any of the hardware gurus clarify why this is needed (especially: why is this needed for one of my chips but not for the other?). I've just built a third board, with exactly the same behaviour (needs strobe to make latch work).
