I see you on windows, so the following account of my suffering the same symptoms with my sapphire r9 290 card are likely of no help at all, sorry.

had a similar problem with my setup, any TC above 8192 would just give errors or refuse to load on gpu , quating insufficient space on gpu mem.

tried deleting the cl bins, freshly build still refused to load,
tried fresh pull an compile of miner softwares, no help.
I tried numerous times reinstalling fglrx drivers and opencl ask and openal headers, no difference.
Tried putting it in a windows box, and it worked fine, grrrr, thats usless to me, i dont have a windows install myself, and dislike having to work around issues when i do encounter windows.
My stuffing around iwth drivers (ati's support for non windows OS is realy very poor after all.
 
But finaly I tried running it from local terminal window, no ssh, no screen command, and IT BLOODY WELL WORK NOW.
My script i normaly ran would screen->ssh->screen, keeping termcaps/envvars where i thought relevent, worked fine on my 7970 (my last gpu).

Damn thought that was the first thing i illiminated out the picture when started  debugging the problem, evidently not.

random tenuously related story i know.
