That's why I was intrigued - I inferred that your fix was to use an sRGB 
profile in the JPEGs rather than CMYK.

However, there still sounds like an issue somewhere - the engine should 
cope with CMYK, so assuming there is a profile in the JPEG for CMYK it 
should display similar to Preview. I know CMYK JPEGs are a bit gnarly so 
having an example which doesn't work quite right might help them work a 
little better and more consistent generally.

Of course, I could have misunderstood entirely!

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
