Thanks, Professor! I've dealt with this issue for years. I find that giving myself a downbeat, as you suggest, just about eliminates it. When I'm practicing with a metronome, no issue. Interestingly, I've recently started using KTM for single-tonguing, which also seems to help. I had been using the tip of the tongue behind the top teeth.
