First of all, note that iBooks for OS X is very very buggy, and its behavior differs from iBooks on iOS with respect to many functions.

Said that, note that "iBooks hiding <aside> elements" is an Apple quirk; any other reading system, in absence of relevant CSS rules or if they don't have a specialized behavior on elements carrying an epub:type, will display an <aside> as any other <div>.

Have you tried applying a CSS rule (e.g., visibility: hidden) to your <aside>?

BTW, for compatibility reasons, I tend to group the notes at the end of the XHTML file.
