Bard songs having shorter duration since patch intended?

[Tiduss1]

I noticed the thread on mob run speed but didn't see anything about this topic.
I had been fear kiting the forager cycle off and on all week and could easily cycle 3 chants, snare, and fear with fear never breaking. Since the patch, I have only been able to get 2 chants, snare, and fear... and about 50% of the time fear breaks before I can finish the 4th song.

So I have gone from being able to do 5 songs to only 3-4 in the duration of snare and fear. I did not see anything in the patch notes about this but I have talked to quite a few bards today and they are all noticing the same thing.

Is this intended? are others having this problem?
