You must be encountering a similar effect I had once. If overlapping (I
know, maybe not even overlapping) lights are in atmosphere they can
cause granular interference somehow. Seems the only remedy I had
available was to increase the samples greatly (70 I believe). I didn't
take a note down of it otherwise I'd know exactly what to tell you.
