My guess is your filetype settings are turning indent back on after you've turned them off in your .vimrc.

Do you have "filetype plugin indent on" in your .vimrc? Or maybe "filetype indent on"?

If so, remove the word "indent" and filetype-based indentation rules will be turned off.

If that's not the problem, then ":verbose set cindent? smartindent? indentexpr?" should tell you what they are set to and which script set them that way. Run this command after you notice the unwanted behavior.
