I'm no expert in hyphenation issues but, offhand, I can't remember anyone talking about successfully installing a hyphenation dictionary for a language which is not in Kobo's built-in supported language list. Quite a lot is known and documented about how to make custom lookup/translation dictionaries work, but not custom hyphenation dictionaries.
The successes I have read about are when someone has improved one of the 8 standard Kobo languages, e.g. hyph_en.dic.
Also, I'm not sure that it's as simple as just adding a new file to the /usr/local/Kobo/hyphenDicts directory. There appear to be some related entries in /usr/share/hyphen, maybe other places, too.
This is less than ideal but have you tried renaming your custom hyphenation dictionary to one of the default language names that you'll never want to use? Unfortunately you'd also need to change the language to match in each of your epub/kepubs.
Hopefully, someone with more expertise will chip in soon.
