Question - have you reinstalled the levers yet? I remember noticing
behavior something like this on a set of "in-the-box" Ergo levers; all
was well once a cable was installed providing some tension, and they've
worked fine for many miles since.

If you've got this problem with a cable already providing something to
pull against, you can disregard this advice.
