It may be that your 5th/6th synchro has a hard time comming back to neutral( bent fork or broken/ damaged pads could do this). Does it have a problem if you go to 6th then 5th?

Be sure you are fully out of 5th( back to neautral) before going back in.If you do not get fully back, You will disengage the gear but not reseat the synchro. When you try ro re-enter the gear you will not have the synchro working properly and it will not match speed.
