I had this issue as well about a year ago, had talked to Albert Dao and he suggested trying to roll the bucket method I have brought up before. the next time I made water, to my surprise the alk was at the proper levels, wheras the first batch was up around 14-15 as well.

the mentality to roll the bucket is to mix the salt. Because of shipping, the containers are likely upright - and that because of normal transportation vibration, the denser properties in the salt will slither its way to the bottom.

true or not, I don't know. did it improve when I rolled the bucket, yes.
