It turns out that the ejector was too tall and was rubbing up against the frame. I filed the ejector down and now the slide moves smoothly. Could this have caused my issue?

For sure.
You are sometimes mixing up extractor and ejector, and it gets confusing; I'm assuming you mean extractor.
The ejector is the long spring in the side of the receiver extension, and does not have a "spring" it is its own spring.
