This sounds *very* familiar! I've been experiencing similar troubles on
zx6000, until a colleague helped with a firmware update.

In a nutshell:

SAL 3.1: HP version 2.31 -- this you want

SAL 3.1: HP version 2.21 -- this you want to upgrade (though it
had serviced me well for two years)

Yes, I can confirm what you've been experiencing.
