Well, I ain't never seen nor heard of such a thing.

I can only assume that the compensation may in this case be on the THIRD valve to flatten the sharp combinations of 1st/3rd and 1st/2nd/3rd valves ?? Much in the manner that trumpet players lengthen the third valve slide when playng these notes (written D and C sharp below the treble cleff staff). But without seeing your instrument, that's as far as I can comment.

Still, as a general rule for most folks' practical application, I stand by my last post which details the compensation system, its use and application in the fourth valve register.
