The difference is that the Malfoys, Blacks, Crouches, etc. are all families that contain adult wizards. Magic happens in those houses as a matter of course, and presumably the adult wizards are expected to curtail any underage magic. Harry is the only person in his household who has any magical ability, and Dobby isn't his house elf, so it's reasonable to assume that any magical pings from his location come from him and not an authorized practitioner.

I read a fanfiction once [of the Harry/Draco variety, not terrible but kind run of the mill ... /off topic] that basically explained that houses such as Malfoy Manor and the like had a bunch of enchantments in it so that A) it couldn't be traceable* and if there were underage magic happening, the ministry wouldn't know it, so Draco could practice whatever magic to his little shriveled hearts content [that line was actually in the story I read haha]. So there's that theory too.

*I may be mixing up my fanfiction with that plot point...

Yes, I think underage magic without supervision was the problem, not underage magic in itself. The Weasleys all had broomsticks and the twins tried to make Ron swear an Unbreakable Vow before school age.
