So they get some extra time to break their huddle before we start the second half...a normal time-out situation, they need to be ready on the second horn, but not at intermission...

Nope, there's no difference at all between TO's and the end of intermissions, Rocky. As soon as the final signal(second horn) is sounded for both, the administering official blows his whistle and then starts the "resuming play" procedure if a team(s) isn't ready.

Do me a favor and check under T's and see if there isn't wording similiar to "it is a Technical foul to consume more than one minute following the end of intermission"...we have always handled it that the horns were to signal the end of their warm-up time and then they can huddle briefly and then away we go...
