it's a leak somewhere.. Not too sure which but it could be the small pad under A key. When that leaks just a tiny bit, low joint chalumeau is really hard and really fugly, and wants to jump up

Other possibilities is bridge adjustment, bridge pads on upper/lower, throat and side keys (loose pad? missing chunk?). Also check foot key adjustment and loose/weak spring on G# and other springs; that usually covers most of the problems.
