When using a 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter such as # CAB-C5G the connection point between the trailer and the gooseneck ball is extended. That increased distance allows for more movement which is likely what you are experiencing.
The trailer needs to be able to move and lean side to side, it is just more pronounced with this type of 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter.
