x-ua compatible not working every time

My website includes the metatag: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />

However for some of my users (small amount) using IE9 this is not being applied and I am having to tell them to appy compatibility mode themselves

I have it placed directly after the opening of the <head> tag.

Has anyone else had such experiences and know of a way to resolve this?

<meta>'s have to be right after the opening <head> tag

I had this too, but asked the users to clear their IE browser cache and that fixed it for them.

Even though it was clearly there when you view source, it's as if IE was ignoring it until the cache was cleared.
