SOLVED (I hope)

I *think* I have it working.

Instead of letting the drive automount (which can only be prevented by *NOT* booting to the GUI), I mount is using an entry in my /etc/rc.local ( sudo mount -t ext4 LABEL=MEDIA /media/storage ) AND a delay in /boot/cmdline.txt ( rootdelay=10 )

Using fstab may be better, but I have not hit upon the correct syntax yet

With the exact same drive mounted this way, COPS can read the database.

So, for those who find this while tearing their hair out: DO NOT let your ext4 drive automount by booting to the GUI. For whatever reason, this messes up COPS
