That is a pretty common lament. The ebook export functions in most word processors and page layout programs are prone to creating some odd results. You'll find that it is a very common workflow to convert to ePub first and then from the ePub to MOBI. This way you can easily correct any odd behavior present in the document>ePub conversion by editing the ePub.

How stupid is this: I have a little icon I stick in when there are pauses in the narrative - I'd use a double return in a print file for that.

Double-returns are never a good idea. They are an antique typewriter kluge and should only still be used with text editors and the like (e.g. comments editors on forums like this). They shouldn't be used with modern page layout apps, word processors, HTML, ... . You should use a style instead; one with extra "leading" (proper typographic term usually used in word processors and page layout apps) or "margin" ("margin-top" is the usualy method in HTML+CSS) before the paragraph that begins the new scene.
