its possible it may be the detent spring but when its happening under acceleration its also very possible and maybe more likely a case of first gear needing new syncros.
the shape of the teeth on a synchro ring is supposed to be like the shape of a house (imagine a square with a triangle on top) but as it wears it can sometimes taper so the tooth is closer to the shape of a triangle. so when you apply power and load up the geartrain it can pop out of gear
