It could be that it is not sealing correctly...however:
English horn requires quite a lot of air, and therefore, a more open embouchure than oboe. Make sure the reeds can accept the air properly. If the reed seems too closed make sure it is soaked really well. Even if it seems a little hard at first, try to play on it, and it should mellow out.
Even if you are great at oboe, EH is a completely different instrument, so you have to learn many things over again.
