I have a similar application. What I did was
* duplicating the layer,
* defining the labels only for the copy
* setting this layer's transparency to 0 (this parameter should
acutally be named opacity, anyway ...).
This makes it possible to switch the lables independently and has the
additional advantage, that I can set MINSCALE and MAXSCALE for the
lables separately.
