You are trying to do two things at once,  your logic will only allow
one box to be checked, the one that has the value = the last item in
split.

Adding  a break command should work
if(item.Value == s)
{
item.Selected = true;
break;
}

or you can do a little less work...

private void ClearSelectedItems()
{
    foreach(ListItem li in cblStaff.Items)
        li.Selected = false;

}

//check items that have values in the supplied array
private void CheckEmDano(string[] split)
{
 //Don't need this if you rebind  the list on every postback
    ClearSelectedItems();
    ListItem li;
    foreach(string s in split)
    {
          li = cblStaff.Items.FindByValue(s);
          if(li != null)
        li.Selected = true;
     }
}
