I am hoping that I can figure it out before running jumper wires - I am just not sure how the power source is not getting to that line - as the switch right next to it that controls a separate ceiling light works. its crazy.

Ours is an 8408 also. I have three switches side by side like yours. I haven't pulled them out to check but my guess is that there is only one hot line that feeds these three switches. The hot will go to one, then jumper to the second, then on to the third. That's the standard method in AC house wiring and don't see why it would be different here. Hot would go to one side of the switch with the other side going to the device being controlled. On house wiring, a second wire of the hot side goes to the next switch. Other method is to bring the hot into the box then wire nut the hot to the three short wires that feed each switch.
Jumpers are not a bad thing, they're common wiring practice.
Good luck,
