I worked in repair shops for a decade and I don't thing I ever saw this problem being caused by the two pots drifting out of alignment.

Most often it was simply a dirty pot and a squirt of contact cleaner in to both pots would take care of it. Other times it was a sign of a failing component, usually a cap somewhere in the signal path.
