The setups are the problem. Your code essentially does

   \vbox{\chapter{}}

The result is that the markings from the \chapter stay local
to the \vbox that contains it. You need something like this
instead (I leave the details for you to sort out)

\setuphead
   [chapter]
   [command=\MyChapterText,
    before=\setups{chapter:before},
    after=]

\def\MyChapterText#1#2%
   {\vbox to 35mm
      {\headtext{chapter}~#1\blank[small]#2\vss}}

\startsetups [chapter:before]
   \page[left]
   \noheaderandfooterlines
   \vbox to 35mm{}
   \vbox{\blank
   \startalignment[left,nothyphenated]
     \noindent \setups[chapter:quote]
   \stopalignment}
   \resetsetups[quote:text]
   \page[right]
   \noheaderandfooterlines
\stopsetups


Greetings, Taco
