I did what you suggested and it turned out my NumPy NN code
was behaving exactly as the Scala code when using Scala-initialized network.
After digging deeper into this I managed to find and fix a bug in how I was
doing
the random initilization and it's working correctly now.

Thanks a lot for your help!
