I dont think its the one way valve as it is in a way doing its job (well not really but..), if you put it in backwards so the engine vacuum cannot draw air out of the booster the booster stops working and the brakes work but unassisted. But if you put it the correct way which allows the air to be sucked out, the brakes become almost impossible to push in.

i think if the lines were the wrong way round, then it would be same with vac line there or not....
since it occurs when the vac line is changed, i think it's that 
i think it's the wrong way round... and maybe it's direction has been identified incorrectly.
- if it is the correct way round, the engine can draw the air out, and create vacuum in the booster. if there is boost, then it will be blocked from entering the booster.
-if it is backwards, air will be prevented from leaving the booster, so it will not work. even worse, when ther eis boost, the booster will pump up, and so have the opposite effect from that wanted, ie brakes don't work at all.
if "it's the correct way which allows the air to be sucked out" then it should work properly!!!! you WANT air to be sucked from the booster to the engine.
where is the vac line attached to on the intake tract? ont he manifold still? is it engine side or turbo side of the throttle body?
i'm still convinced that when it is backwards the brakes will work worse, sicne the booster is being pumped up...
but if it doesn't work when the 'right way around', then maybe the booster is faulty? or the OWV is faulty and not sealing against the pressure?
check the pressures
