Vern is on the right track.

But not just "certain jobs" - pretty much all jobs.

More specifically _any_ program called has its pointer resolved on first call and there is nothing that will cause that pointer to be re-resolved other than the program setting on LR (OPM or Default AG) or ending the AG (if running in a named AG). That's why ending the AG or signing off (which of course does the same thing only more so) cures the problem.
