yeah. sorry. I read your other post after I posted this one.
when it slips is it in even chunks of say about 45 degrees?
I'm now wondering if the sprocket tolerance isn't tight enough and the sprocket is turning on the freehub body. Unlikely but it's the only explanation left

Nope. Tried it with three different sprockets, two of which have worked before with no trouble. The other is brand new.
 
Last time this happened to me it was a stiff link in a new chain. Couldn't loosen the link off, had to remove it eventually, at the side of the road on the way to work. Always carry a chain tool!
