I tried a bunch of variations on that technique but was not able to get it to force a break in the current version of InDesign 5.5 (7.5.1).

However, I was able to make it work by creating a text frame containing only a space character and give that the paragraph style I'm using to break the ePub into multiple files on export. Then I just place a copy of that text frame somewhere on the page where I would like the break to appear.

I also created an object style for the text frame with the name "break", which shows up as the class of the exported div tag. That makes it easy to search for it in the HTML and remove it from the final ePub files.
