That's what I would expect. Inbound spokes are more vulnerable to this failure because they get less support on the bend than outbound ones. If the flanges are thin, you might be able to improve matters by using washers under the spoke heads.

This particular spoke snapped at the hub end right on the bend, it was on the inside of the hub.
I have the spokes tensioned to 10 on the park tools gauge, this is about right?
