In my experience, your font has to have actual small-caps glyphs in the lowercase letter slots, for this to be pulled off on the broad range of ereaders we try to support these days.

This is correct. Current Readers cannot get to the small-caps in an OTF font unless the small-caps have replaced the lowercase letters.
But some fonts do have a small-caps variant so you can use that to get true small-caps. I know some SIL fonts have small-caps built-in tot he OTF, but somewhere on the SIL sight, you can take the font families and make small-caps versions out of it.
