Key won't come out of ignit. lock (with pic)

In December I replaced the gearset and the key lock cylinder. Since then my key's been stuck in the ignition.
Earlier this week the car developed some transmission issues. Since I can't really trust the car to go very far I thought I'd revisit the key issue.
I removed the transmission control so I could work on it inside in the light and removed the lock barrel without an issue. Turn the key fully to the left and it comes out of the barrel. Put it back in the mid-1 position and push in the pin and it goes back in the cavity. And locks in place. Turn the key to the right, no problem, back to the left, and it won't come out. I took used a (sadly) grey sharpie (all I had) and marked that point on the barrel. Then I removed the barrel, turned the key more to the left and it came out. I have marked the marker points on the photo with black arrows.
What can I do to make it so this d*mn thing actually will come out of the barrel when it's installed? Please advise.
