John, my experiences revealed that GO over GO was rarely successful and when it was, had to be done very specifically for each paper. Given other reports here it's obvious this may not be universally true. However, if you have the ability to turn off the GO entirely during the image ink pass, you may have better luck with the second pass. It's worth one last test I think. Initial pass dry times were critical as well.
It's obvious GO from different sources behaves differently, so take this with a grain of salt... each paper I worked on required different amounts of go in different tonal areas, then different amounts of GO in the second pass, to be remotely successful. After I finally realized the problem, I eliminated it in the first pass and things fell into place.
Of course that was different GO, different ink, different paper, but it's still worth a try.
