I had a similar problem where I was having problems with a clicking noise when I pedaled with force but not in the stand. I had to remove the crank arm an re-attach it several times before it stopped. Even though I had cranked the bolt down, it kept coming loose because it wasn't seated on the taper right. I think I just happened to get it seated right that last time and cranked the bolt. I recheck the bolts regularly now to make sure it isn't loosening. My goal is to make sure the taper and hole seat to the same shape and don't deform or dent if it starts to come loose when I pedal hard.
Good luck finding the source of the problem.
