I think you might want to turn the clamp 180 degrees so the clamp locking knob is in the up position. that way it will not impinge on the wall of the ball head possibly causing your issue. it then will very likely allow it to settle into the correct position in the notch.
the suggestion of an L bracket, though some don't care for them, is an excellent one as it allow greater mechanical advantage/movement in varying situations.
as to "short" ball heads not working well in the flip side not so true but:
why would I want to do this (Image 1)
when I can do that (Image 2)
oh, if I do run into a real vertical fit issue (someone elses gear setup) I have at my disposal a screw on 1" riser block which at the time of use eliminates any questions of usability in any situation.
using an L allows easier recomposition when moving from landscape to portrait or visa versa
