We have seen this issue in support quite a few times, but have been unable to reproduce it in the lab.
PowerPath packages Microsoft MPIO for W2K3 installations and installs or upgrades if needed. On Windows 2008 it just enables the feature on the O/S. Yes PowerPath requires MPIO.
As far as I am aware we have not been able to resolve this issue without the procedure you mentioned.
With regard to your procedure....I would swap 1 & 2 around and add a reboot.
