What you have described - almost verbatim - is the known problem both
Peter and I eluded to in an earlier post.  Yamaha can repair the problem
- it is a hardware fix referred to as a 'factory modification'.  I've
posted some details of my experience having the repair performed on my
AN1x Page http://www.jdlx-musique.com/

I don't recall if Peter ever had the fix performed.  It probably
bothered me more than him ;-) I'd heard about this 'bug' (inaccurate
description I know) prior to buying my AN1x and figured I had a 50/50
chance of getting a model without the problem :-/  If your AN1x is under
Warranty - go for it!  If not, ask how much it will cost before
deciding.  You might ask what the long term effects on the unit will be
without having the repair performed.  As far as I know no one ever
figured out if it gets worse or not?
