Sorry, I don't have the time to test right now, so I am going to throw 
some ideas at you.

Try -clip off with the arrow, because that makes things get drawn later 
(though I think arrows already have that by default).

Try putting the arrow in a different scrap that is stacked on top ("break").

Try using line label.

Try using u-comecustomtext to create the label instead of point label (I 
have some custom code if you need it, but I suspect you already use that 
somewhere), since you can then control when it paints it.
