In case anyone else runs into this. You can fix this by using NFSv4. There are issues with file locking and if you don't have statd running with NFSv3 to help manage lock status for files then you'll run into these types of issues. I was having this same issue and had to update my NFS server to ONLY use NFSv4. Once I did this, I didn't have the issue anymore.
