I am experiencing exactly this problem (i quote the last post of that thread):

Also add this scenario: when Fade is off in Preferences
- drag kick (i.e. 808 kick) into arrangement
- copy kick 4 times and select loop
- playback loop. The first kick sounds like there is a fade active.

- insert some silence before the first kick.
- playback from beginning of silence. Now the first kick sounds normal again.

So somehow when playing back from the beginning of the wave there is an audible fade added. Begin playback with some silence before the wave and the fade is gone.
I am wondering why this is like that. Seems like a bug to me which is still present, but the thread is marked as "done".

I posted it in the bugforum as well, cause i sounds like that to me:
