Matt,
The B45 is a very open mouthpiece. After getting the instrument checked by a repair tech, and assuming it's OK, I suggest you try a 5RV or similar size opening. Have a look at the mouthpiece chart at <www.vandoren.com>.
In the meantime a softer reed should help.
IMO there is nothing wrong with Rico Royals; I've played them for 30+ years, on both clarinet and saxes.
Regards,
Hans
