If the above will not solve your problem you can record your local
directory in vimrc:
let g:pwd = getcwd()
and in a '.vim/after/plugin/myscript.vim' use:
set noautochdir
exe 'cd '.fnameescape(g:pwd)

If this was due to lcd used somewhere it should solve it. I assume that
it only happens on startup, if not you might need to use autocommands.
Maybe it only happens with some file type?
