I had to get used to the fact that fretting a nylon string classical is different than a steel string. Playing in classical position with the guitar on my left leg elevated higher than parallel to the floor helped a lot. I know just what you mean...it sounds like its coming from the bridge. Paying a lot of attention and experimenting with your fretting may help. I do however like the Savarez strings ...normal or hard tension.
the wierd thing is that it only happens with the A string
I always try to fret as close to the fret as I can but its not always possible for me. I ordered D'Addario & Augustine strings with different tension, will update when they get here. Thanks
