For LD, the velocities will (should) get rescaled by the random thermal
noise, that is- by the Langivin thermostat.
With MD, the thermostat works like friction (positive or negative friction).
So you see, that for LD, an initial velocity of zero should next be changed
by the thermostat, while for MD the rescaling shouldn't work for zero.
