Check the paper. There was a problem back several months ago with smudging problems on SU white paper. I've used the SU markers for years and have never had a problem.
This may be a weird question, but are you left-handed? I am and have the same problem with virtually everything I color, and even when I use a non-ball point pen. The inks smears everywhere, so I have to be really careful.
Sometimes the ink from the markers get on the plastic part of the barrel just above the nib. I usually just look at them before I use them. If there is any ink residue on that part of the barrel, I just wipe it off with a tissue before using them.
SU did recently have a problem with their whisper white, and it is apparently solved. I would take the rest of your paper back to your demo and she can handle a return. If it is within the 90 period from shipping, they should replace it.

This happened last night at a 10 for 10 I was at-- both cards we used marker on smudged and both cards were white. This turned me off from buying the markers. The black ink pad always seems super wet also. strange
I had that happen to me this week. But I switched to naturals white cs and it's perfect. The whisper white cs is ultra smooth, but not the naturals white. My markers are just about a year old, maybe they're still really juicy. HTH
