This doesn't happen to other people - or maybe it does.  We aren't sure
because you didn't include any specific output.  How about including
the output of pvs and lvs before and after the vgchange (and any output or
errors from vgchange).  Since the issue is sporadic, you might not
have the "before" output, but at least include the vgchange command 
and "after" output.  You may just be misinterpreting something.
