RE: One key problem - always at highest brilliance...

I'm glad you fixed it.

Now, concerning the general velocity problem with your keyboard, you should check the velocity contacts closely.

I've just posted a photo showing the wire that might break on the contact strip:

On my unit, a few were broken a few millimeters away from the hole (probably due to the rubbing with the upper strip when pressing down and up on a key to get the aftertouch). One was particularly lifted, so the contact with the upper strip occurred sooner which resulted in higher velocities than expected.
