Power Problem USB vs. Battery Power


i having  a strange problem , need guidance on may causing this.  i have project powered arduino mega; when supply power via usb computer, works great (even old mac believe has lower voltage usb).  when power via battery through dc barrel jack, lcd hard read , ping sensors don't operate properly.  clearly there power issue, don't know or why.  for batteries, using fresh aa's in 6 x aa = 9v within input range listed mega. (i've tried single 9v battery through dc barrel jack, same bad result).

i using separate power supplies rest of project...i run separate supply adafruit motor shield, , third power supply power servo (common ground on one).

any suggestions??

actually measure voltage going arduino when battery connected , under load.
