changed general-sibling combinator for toggling pseudo-element: what is valid

Question

I've hit the frequently mentioned WebKit bug. The following workaround seems to work in specific instances . However I am not succeeding in finding the valid combinations.

Starting with (shortened. the actual code has 9 child elements to create a carousel):

    input[value="1"]:checked ~ .container .carousel p:nth-child(1) { -webkit-transform: translateZ(540px) scale(1); opacity: 1; }

I've attempted the syntax suggested in the link

    input[value="1"]:checked + .container + .carousel p:nth-child(1) { -webkit-transform: translateZ(540px) scale(1); opacity: 1; }

However that disables the toggled action.

* update *
As pointed out, I did not properly specify the problem.

The issue is that the checkbox hack is not working on Android < 4.1 (as far as I can tell).
Using Chrome or Safari (Firefox is not properly functioning with the code, and is being rendered separately) the result of the code can be seen here

See jsFiddle Example . This worked for me

input[value="1"]:checked + .container .carousel p:nth-child(1) 
    { -webkit-transform: translateZ(540px) scale(1); opacity: 1; }
