Assuming that by rocking the tubes too aggressively, one might cause the socket to lessen its grip on the pins:
One way to check this might be to break open a set of dead tubes and remove a single pin from each, then hold each pin, one at a time, in small pliers, inserting it into each receptacle of the corresponding socket, verifying that the pin is being "grabbed" with adequate force.
