One sign that tells me I'm actually taking too much reed in my mouth on a specific mouthpiece and reed is instability on those notes and G#5 and A5. I only throw that out because you mention trying to solve this by taking *more* mouthpiece with *softer*reeds. One of the things taking more mouthpiece lets you do is use softer reeds. Maybe you've just gone too far in the direction of soft reed/lots of mouthpiece. Have you tried to take less reed and use less pressure (but still all around the mouthpiece) just to see what happens?
Keep in mind, even the players who advocate taking a lot of mouthpiece limit it by saying "as much as possible" and use squawking out of control as an indicator. Could your "voicing" issue on these notes be the beginnings of a limiting squawk?
