I have a similar set of autocmds. I used the &filetype rather than &buftype (maybe the autocmd predates the quickfix buftype?) but the intent is the same.
I also used BufEnter for my main autocmd.
However, I have a comment in my vimrc that "File type will not be set on the first BufEnter" followed by a second "FileType qf" autocmd to also set the scrolloff appropriately. Possibly the buftype acts the same way and you'll need to use the same method.
