Spent quite a few hours trying to debug this and got nowhere. So I switched out the 'FancyBox for WordPress' plugin with the latest version of FancyBox, and it was fixed. Really should have tried that earlier.

After having spent some time with WordPress and its various plugins, I'd recommend calling things manually rather relying on plugins. It just adds another layer of complexity that, if you know what you're doing, doesn't need to be there.
