Rubberband I believe the rough running is caused by the fuel rich air from where the aux has overflowed changing the mixture momentarily. I have seen something similar happen in the opposite sense using a grader up close to a fire front putting in a break when the engine started running rough because the oxygen in the local parcel of air was getting consumed by the fire and changing the mixture.
