Does adding the keyword stretch in align={...} give what you want:
No, not always (though it seems to be better than without it).

The original string was
    align={flushleft,lohi,stretch,verytolerant,nothyphenated}
which surely didn't work, but I have to do some more testing. Does the
order of parameters make any difference?
