Whoops, wasn't asking for advice on the power settings. BTW if you select any of the "Basic" settings, it auto puts those super high wattage figures in. Anyways, I'm happy with my current power to hashrate figures so not going to muck with those.

My pictures were intended to point out that I had the extranonce setting on 2 and was still seeing cgminer4.7.0 in contrast to what the previous poster mentioned. Trying to get that issue resolved.
As you have, plus adding #xnsub to the end of the URL and a restart worked for me on all miners.  i.e.
Code:
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334#xnsub

Thanks, this allows the green checkmark on Nicehash, but breaks the secondary pool as Nicehash, even when pricing is below p=value, stays Alive and never fails over to the secondary pool.
Also when using p=value in this way, once the price is no longer met, the miner simply stops sending any shares, and does not fail over to the secondary.
Firmware 2.6.9, tested on multiple SP20s and also affects S5 the same way.
Are you using anything in addition to p=value in the password field?  Does your rollover pool show Alive, even while mining on Nicehash?  

My settings are similar to philipma's, and work exactly as expected on multiple miners.  I'm on fw v2.6.9 - I don't know where *it* went to, or why it was pulled (edit: current fw shows v2.6.1)

(another edit) only use the #xnsub on Nicehash and Westhash, not on your fallover pool(s).
