I'm just commenting to say that I'm in the same boat. I discovered the same things you did, minus the board swap, plus disassembling and cleaning the cannon mechs. I'm not stressing out too much since everything still works but it would be nice to get this corrected at some point.
I am running ROM version LA-7. I don't think it's related to the ROM as I've had the game for a few years and this is a recent development.
Since it only happens when the opto is blocked, my current guess is that it is power related and somehow the opto being blocked causes a voltage drop to the cannon motor. I haven't had the time to meter back along the circuit yet.
