I'm not sure what the cause was for your plugin to suddenly stop working on my site, but I wanted to relay the fix that worked for me. I replaced your conditional with if ( is_page( $page ) || ( in_array( $page, get_ancestors($post->ID, $post->post_type) ) ) )
Some other plugin must be the cause, but I reviewed all my plugin updates of late and scoured the code for hours trying to see what might mess with the ancestors array. Even calling get_post_ancestors($post) did not work.
