So far, it has happened more so on the passenger side than the driver side (almost 2:1 ratio). And repeating the process doesn't help either.... it unlocks when I pull up then locks right back when I pull the door open. Very strange.

After trying a few times persistently, I just resort to pressing the unlock button on the remote and it fixes the issue. I have no problems with the trunk or turning on the car so far, so it must be something with the door modules. I will have to take it to the dealer I guess... sigh
Just a guess (based on personal experience): You're right-handed (or left-handed and driving a U.K. car) and your little finger is brushing against the locking portion of the handle when you open the door. That's why it mostly happens on the passenger side and not the driver's side.
