Trumpet playing: The room you're playing in really affects the sound you hear. So does your position in that room. If you are having weird issues with pieces you know you can play, try playing in the corner of the rooms, so your playing into the largest physical space possible.
Similarly, when I tried to learn to play using a mute, it sounded like absolute dogshit because the mute changes a ton about how the instrument sounds and feels to play. You're going to sound (and probably be) off key and the lung pressure feels different because you're blocking part of the air flow out of the instrument. It requires a technique adjustment to sound right.
