Yes, and no one has mentioned other possible leaks - especially those large pads at the bottom that need to be closed for B4 and C5. Any leak can make crossing the break harder.

To Maruja, if you haven't had your instrument checked by a skilled repair person, have it checked. All of us at some time or other have struggled with a problem we've assumed we were causing when it turned out to be a mechanical problem with the clarinet.
