This sounds like it might be the same problem as the one described by the bug "dosfslabel does not set volume label in the right place" in the Red Hat bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=503228 For what it's worth, the "mlabel" command (part of the mtools package) does seem to set both copies of the volume label; you might be able to use mlabel -i /dev/sda1 :: in place of your dosfslabel command above....
