KORG is the only brand I know that doesn't glitch in the manner you describe. The only other thing I might suggest, is to use one of the "Pianist" chord recognition modes on your BK-9, which require a minimum of 3 keys to be pressed before acknowledging a chord. Personally I use "Intelligent" which is good (and it doesn't penalize you for pressing 3 or more notes.) However, it will begin to acknowledge a chord with even one note pressed, and then try to fill the other notes of the pattern in late, using portamento to slide their pitch, etc. IMO this "hair trigger" behavior could be causing the unwanted notes you describe.
