It is a voicing problem. Unless this is a Steinway, the best way to get more sustain out of these hammers is to deep needle at about 10 and 2 o'clock. To get more equal sustain in the 5th and 6th octaves, as a sample I use a note just past where the dampers end. Using a sharp blow, listen for the sustain. To get that same sound, I use the sustonuto to hold up the last 6 - 10 dampers, and give each note the same sharp blow. I voice each hammer to get the same sustain on all of these notes.
