Sounds like something is setting up a shortcut that starts with 'O'.
Vim is waiting for the next keystroke in a multi-key mapping. To see if
that's the case, type:

:noremap O

If there's any output, that would be the reason.

It might depend on what plugins you've got installed, and might only
happen for certain filetypes. So, test it from a situation in which the
problem occurs.
