What I think you're experiencing, is the Work Sharp ferrous diamond plates being attracted to the magnets in the PPA magnetic base. The Hapstone stone holder itself does not have any magnets in it, so the stone holder itself would be compatible.
Try not to use any diamond plated metal stones, as these are affected by the magnetism of the base.
The Leading Edge core unit with the large knife magnetic base, has very strong neodymium magnets in it, so it will hold your large chef's knives very securely but any metal plated stones are attracted to the magnets.
The original WSPPA stone holder also does have magnets in it, but the Hapstone stone holder and the 6 inch Leading Edge stone holder do not have any magnets in them.
I would suggest using the Leading Edge universal upgrade (this includes the large blade magnetic platform), paired up with a 6 inch Leading Edge stone holder and non-ferrous sharpening stones, such as resin bonded or similar sharpening stones. None of these will interfere with the magnetism at all. Some links below for your reference:
