when exactly do you notice this problem (any specific time, when the engine is just started or when it is hot), there is a secondary lockout to prevent them from opening when the motor is not heated up all the way.

The carb is designed to keep the secondaries from opening until the choke is completely warmed up and open (off).
If it is holding the secondaries closed even when warmed up, you may need a linkage cleaning or adjustment. The little catch can be a little too close to the lock-out pin and keep them from opening even when they should.
