Thx.  Smokeless in Pennsylvania
 
Not too familiar with them, but usually you need to get the wood closer to the heat source or increase the heat. Is it possible this wood is greener than the other you used??
 
I don't have your smoker, but I do have a gas smoker that had the same problem.

I replaced the factory chip pan with a veggie wok. It sits closer to the flame.

It has holes in it & I just put some aluminum foil in the bottom, to keep the ashes off the burner.
