I'm hoping some of you guys can

My guess is that your "slave" pedal is the one that's giving you trouble? The problem is that the slave pedal will never be as responsive as the main pedal. The reason is simple, the slave has a lot more inertia to overcome, links and all that ads a lot of mass, and some friction. It's pure physics, and nothng one can do about it. IMHO, your pedal was probably allways like this, but now that you have used it for a while, you are much more sensitive to the subtleties, so now you notice it. I'm afraid every double pedal on the face of the earth has the same problem, as I said, it's physics. Unless there is a problem with the bearings (which is very,very rare!) I'm afraid that you will have to live with it.
