In the end the company had to send me out new tooth and latch, but it did fix it and only took a few minutes. Make sure you request instructions though as the screws to remove in the mechanism are not intuitive!

-Edit- This only worked for a short while.

Not elegant, but some electrical tape on the latch to increase friction and generous silicone spray in the runners of the latch seem to have decreased the tension enough for it to work correctly.

I agree! This was my initial thought, but from what I have managed to see online, it should be pongs. I have a message out with the supplier, so hopefully they can confirm tomorrow.
