IIRC using server-switch-hook had problems because it's either not always
called when you need the new frame, or it's also called at times when you
don't want it.

I believe that's what you want.  But maybe your `pop-to-buffer' doesn't
create new frames because you haven't set pop-up-frames.  If you don't want
to set pop-up-frames in general, try:

(setq server-window
      (lambda (&rest args)
        (let ((pop-up-frames t))
          (apply 'pop-to-buffer args))))
