I think the best explanation I've heard of this is that "true happiness" isn't what sets him off. It's any moment when his soul doesn't plague him anymore. When he was w/ Buffy, he let his mind blank and forget everything but her - his soul didn't torment him. With Darla, the whole encounter happened BECAUSE his soul was bothering him, because he'd found out how evil people - even the so-called "innocents" - really are. THAT is why he didn't lose it w/ her. As long as his soul is still nagging at him, he's safe.
