Try moving your tongue to the corner of the reed.
Eric Barr spoke about this in a recent interview and my first teacher told me about tonguing at the corner. They both claimed that it cleaned up the thudding articulation that oboists sometimes have. It does produce a lovely, clean and buoyant articulation, however it feels a little awkward and alien at first.
It is worth the effort, if nothing more than comparisons sake.
