I'm not sure from your post where the glue is failing - the substrate or the veneer. I normally scuff sand my substrates with three or four ROS passes with 80 grit to clean the surface and highlight any dings and other low areas.
Can you make a couple trials to see where the problem lies? Perhaps gluing some of the smoked tineo alongside some other veneer on the substrate, and second perhaps a 2 ply of the smoked tineo? This should identify the culprit. (I'm not familiar with either hot pressing or this veneer, so I can't offer any personal experience with either.)
