I've made this test the other day, in full auto happened to find (some fall out right out the barrel themselves tilting the rifle) 4 to 5 bbs

Look carefully at the 3 pillars that are around the valve... they should be perfectly in axis and smooth. If they look to be twisted, there is your problem... It causes a bad air seal, which in turn allows for the rocket valve to close and fail to fire. It is less proheminent in semi-auto because the rubber has time to settle and make a better seal.
the other day when I changed the 7x1,5mm nozzle o-ring the nozzle seemed in good shape, but after reading your post this evening after work I'll surely give it a closer look to confirm if it's good or bad.
