You're saying other reeds don't have this problem? Are they on the same gouge?
Sounds like maybe the sides of the gouge are a bit too thin, or your shape is a bit to wide. Have you stuck a plaque in the reed, and trimmed the sides of the tip slightly in so that they don't flare out (I don't mean the corners, I mean the actual sides of the tip). Sometimes this helps to prop up the high notes.
