Fresh Wolff firing pin spring did the trick, no more failure to fire. The flat-sided AE mag operates the hold-open just fine--not so with the mag that came with it. Its follower button is styled a little differently. It makes the hold-open rise, but it can easily be pushed back down with a finger. I think the excess lateral room in the mag well may be allowing the hold-open to slip off and past the button.
