When you load it,try bumping the side a couple times near the flash pan.
I had an old Thompson Center caplock 40 ish years ago that liked a little side bump before seating the bullet.
Not on the opposite side. Just the flash pan side.
It should be the same on a flint lock.
Sounds crazy, but put some sand in a flat pan and bump it with your hand and watch the sand move towards the side you bump.
I figure the same thing happens in the flash hole.
I’ll give it a try tomorrow.
