Quick guess:

Does some other object overlap (even 1 pixel will do) your field?
If yes, that might be the answer...

Another solution(?) for me was, after i had the same problem and NO 
other objects
were overlapping my field, to simply replace the field with a fresh and 
new one!

Although that did NOT make sense, it worked for me... :-)
