Sounds weird.

The in-kernel RC6 decoder already has margins of around 50% for most
pulse/spaces (i.e. 444us +/- 222us). Changing the sample resolution from
10 to 6 us should have little to no effect on the RC6 decoding (also,
the Windows driver uses a 50us resolution IIRC).

Do you have a log of a successful and unsuccesful event (the timings
that is)?
