I kinda think I know what you are describing. I only notice it in 1st or 2nd though and as you said around half throttle. What really bugs me is the throttle lag. You can kick the pedal and it takes it about half a second or maybe even closer to a second to pick it up. I bet this is something that can be tuned out though. I'll mess around with it some more when I get off work. I thought about snagging up a throttle controller, but heard a lot of people saying they have been getting CEL's on it and ya i don't want that.
Edit- Also seems like right around 3grand is the smoothest shifts. It just loves being shifted right in there.
