Arle,
 
   Consider that the plane of the wheel is a curve and the plane  of the keys 
is a straight line. Therefore, if you push on the keys the pressure  of each 
string on the wheel changes with each push of the key. In essence, you  are 
pushing the string farthest from you harder into the wheel as you play and  the 
string closest to you away from the wheel. This is aggravated by the fact  
that the keybox you have is wider that most and thus the pressure on the wheel  
changes more dramatically. This causes the string to lighten its pressure on 
the  wheel and, although it plays while the key is pressed, it causes the 
string 
to  have to "catch" again before the open note will begin to play which 
causes a  warbled effect. Much like having to pluck the heavy drones in order 
to 
get them  to start ringing.
 
   My suggestion is to very slightly increase the pressure on the  wheel for 
that single string and try to find a happy medium between the pressure  on the 
wheel and the sound of the string. This may take some work but I know you  
are up to it.

Thanks to Curtis Berak for pointing this simple but often missed point out  
to me.
