I have experienced something similar in year past (brand cannot be remembered after all these years) with a particularly slippery, or oily sort of cork grease. My belief is that the "grease" itself also penetrates the wood acting to further expand the joint.

The standard whitish, waxy cork greases that come in the chapstick type tube are for my money the best cork greases for clarinet.

I use the Vandoren brand ones.
