My 1040STf behaves the same way. I wonder too. Maybe we both have
a bad auto program. I don't remember the details, but my auto
folder contains a clock setting program (currently a freebee from
Batteries Included, previously some other freebee).

I suspect that the order the .prg files are found in the auto folder
control the order in which they are executed. This order is hard to
observe or control. Here is my recipe:
- remove all files from the auto folder
- add the .prg files back in the order you want them executed
