Drum sounds are very "difficult" for these tools because the FFT-based analysis assumes a quasi-stationary signal (imagine a sine wave that never changes, that's the easiest) whereas drum hits really strongly violate this. Also phase issues and other stuff. To be honest you'll probably do best using some kind of clever perceptually-tweaked crossfade-based technique... or maybe find something using LPC-based analysis rather than FFT, that might do well (I haven't looked) - LPC should have a better chance at handling drum sounds gracefully.
