Here's my experience with Duracell...
One or more in a package being completely dead from new, but low resistance, if you stick them in without checking, (why would you?), the voltage across 4 of them would be 4.5 instead of 6v, and would no doubt run a radio for instance but appear to rundown quickly as the dead cell charges in reverse (?) No doubt leaking its contents inside your device in the process.
This has happened on a number of occasions to me, and I no longer buy their QUALITY PRODUCTS, their QC people asked for the offending cells to be returned when I complained but denied receiving them and offered no compensation.
