Personally I have not had this problem. I use a Primus stove and Coleman cylinders.

Had a bad batch early last year, seemed as if the stove wouldn't screw on quite enough to compress the pin fully. Yet the sunn gas bivvy heater worked fine. Switched to Go System gas.

I found all canisters give a quick squirt as you connect the stove to the canister. Primus definitely has more pressure compared to the rest.
I regularly do a simple check on whether the canister to stove connection leaks because I am paranoid about it, the possibility of gas explosion etc. Soapy water, or even spit over the O ring connection, if it bubbles, then you have a leak.
It can pay to keep a close eye on the O ring in case it perishes and leaks.
