There are many things that can cause this, from a sticky slide, to an improper valve knocker (most aftermarket valve knockers, including ILLusion Kinetics require re-shaping in order to fit aftermarket receivers), to a cracked nozzle, to an improperly fitting cylinder bulb, to a mis-shaped disconnect lever, to the slide not engaging the chamber, to your hammer spring being too heavy (and causing the valve knocker to slip off the strike face of the valve), to.... well... like I said, there are many things that can cause this.

There is no one solution to the problem based on the very vague and general description of the problem that you've described. The best way to source the problem is to swap every single part one by one with known working parts to narrow down what causes the issue.
