I've got a few kryptonites and abuses alike, they've all done this at various points in time. I think it's more to do with aligning the discs so you can fit the key all the way in than loosening them. I found gentle inward pressure while I rotated the key back and forth did the trick. You'll find it after you've unlocked/locked in a rush as you don't pull the key out quite straight.
The Abus is doing that because it's got tight tolerances. A bit of use and it'll loosen up the tiny bit it needs. Be thankful it isn't as slack as an old kryptonite! They're much better made.
