The problem might not come from autochdir but from something like:

autocmd BufRead * lcd %:p:h

which sets the window's local directory. Perhaps you have that
somewhere in your .vimrc file or elsewhere? (It's common enough.)

As far as I know, you can't. But you can put a script in your "after"
directory, which simply contains:

set noautochdir

Scripts in "after" are loaded after plugins.
