Burbling

For some reason or other I have started "burbling" as I play, particularly in the staff. This is fairly new--just within the last month or so--and it does not happen all the time. When playing with the band or the brass ensemble, there is very little problem. When I'm playing exercises--scales, intervals, practices pieces, etc.--there is very little problem. But when I try Rochut (I'm using the trombone book and playing the notes an octave down), I have plenty of problems. The burbling almost sounds like I'm trying to play two notes at once. If I'm _very_ careful, I can eliminate the sound. And it does not happen every time. I've tried both before and after warming up, and it still happens. Any ideas on what's causing it and how to avoid it?
