How to translate and rotate the heading of landscaped pages? (revisited)

Question

@Leo Liu's geometry patch seemed too good to be true, and as it turns out it works only once (in this case, for chapter Bar, not Qux). It there a modidification that would make it always work? Side issue: why doesn't pagestyle have any effect?

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[a6paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{lscape,lipsum}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\usepackage{xparse}

  \pdfpageheight=\paperheight}{}{}
\makeatother

\usepackage{titleps}%-----------------------------------------

    \thepage/\pageref{LastPage}
  }{}{}

\restoregeometry
\chapter{Baz}
\lipsum[1][3]

\loadgeometry{landscape}%Ignored
\chapter{Qux}
\lipsum[1][4]

\end{document}%-----------------------------------------------

You need to patch \loadgeometry too. And the first page of a chapter uses plain style, so you need to change this page style.
