But, if I could log into the machine in question and run a shell, I'd be in an excellent position to give a sane answer. Don't read too much into it.

Without some form of sane output message or a well-known bug, it's not possible to diagnose what you might be running into. I personally have never heard of mpd doing different things between boots.
