Bias is a force applied latterally to the tonearm to equalise pressure of the stylus on each side of the record groove. This imbalance is a result of the geometry of most tone arms.
Thes results in a slight force pushing the arm cartridge away from the center of the record. The cueing problem arises when the 'bar' that lifts and lowers the arm does not hold the arm in place, by friction, causing the arm to slide outwards by several grooves.
The slicker the contact between the lifting bar and the arm, the lighter the tracking weight, the greater the problem. The solution is to glue something a bit more 'grippy' to the underside of the arm where it contacts the lifting bar. I have seen small pieces of rubber bands and tiny strips of fabric sticking plasters used, both successfully.
