I got a new Kanilea soprano uke for Christmas, and when I was playing it at first, with the way I was holding it the back of the ukulele could freely move - and it sounded peaky, with some dead notes or wolf tones. But I noticed that when I held it against my body, the sound was much more even and the dead notes largely disappeared.
I then experimented some with my Kanilea tenor, and though it's less noticeable, it too sounded peaky when not played against my body.
Is this by design?
With acoustic guitars, they tend to send good regardless of if the back is pressed against the body, but maybe this is a common trait of ukuleles.
