this is exactly the point, you are right...

okwan is a logical variable which is .TRUE. if at least one of the 
pseudopotentials in the calculation is ultrasoft (or vanderbilt type)...

unfortunately, while S does not need USPP, Zn is it quite hard in terms of 
cutoff energy, and therefore, after a brief check, it seems the pseudopage 
of espresso does not contain any norm-conserving pseudo for Zn.
