Why do steps 2,3,4,5 if you're putting it in the ultrasonic cleaner anyway? Why not just do enough runs in that to clean it.
I've tried that and it doesn't strip the factory grease as well as white spirits and meths. Of course, it would work well if I put white spirit in the ultrasonic cleaner, but I've got the fear when it comes to ultrasound and flammable liquids. It'd probably be fine, but I'm not happy to risk it all on 'probably'.

Seriously though, any decent degreasers that aren't petroleum based? Read a lot about people using some USA green stuff.. Simple Green? Not sure that's good enough for a new chain strip though. Diluted carb cleaner seemed to work well on the two test chains.

For me I think the best bit will be the utrasonic cleaning - I might just stick to cleaning and using liquid wax lubes for now.
