A longer nut that goes almost to the opposite internal side of the fork crown might help. If it already did, then I'd put it back on or get a new one and then see if the brake gets loose again. If it doesn't loosen, then pour some scotch until that desire to know why disappears.
I used the term "recessed mounting bolt" in my latter response above to help eliminate confusion. Using a 19mm so the solution maybe to go as long as possible, 30mm or 35mm ??
