Something in this file name causes the update to be either skipped or fail with an invalid parameter KB2841134-x64 Brute Force Overide (cab) = IE11 Install.cab

Renaming the update to IE11 Install.cab causes the update to integrate just fine. same file.
 
_ is always best to use than parentheses or spaces

besides, you also need
IE-Spelling-en.msu
IE-Hyphenation-en.msu

There are some programs that take issue with underscores and I find them ugly to read however I will agree that they are "safer than spaces"

The other IE prerequisites were also included in the integration as should be implied by the context of the bug report. I don't think it's the spaces actually I suspect it's the = or () that is the problem as many other updates with spaces in the names integrated just fine the above characters are far more rare
