I agree with most of your points, but thought I'd help you with this one. Once both players have loaded into the game, have player 1 press 'Options' on the controller to bring up the menu, then select 'Multiplayer'. This allows you to shuffle party members around between active players. I've never had to go through the steps that you described.

I will say that occasionally the 'Multiplayer' option goes missing from the menu and does require a game restart to bring it back.
