Clone stamp is lighter than sampling area

[Lisa27938576byoc]

Dear all,

For a few months now I have issues using clone stamp.

I take a sample using my ALT key and then clone it. 

However, when I put them next to eachother the cloned part is always lighter than the original. 

Before, it was the same color as sampled. Does anyone else experience this? And is there a solution?

Thank you

It could be a blending mode or an opacity setting, for instance. Please provide the requested screenshot.
