I've had this issue as well with a Chamberlain.  What's odd though is
we have a 2-door garage, with two separate identical Chamberlain
openers.  One (mine) had the problem described, the other (my wife's)
didn't.

The problem magically went away.  However, my opener has completely
stopped working for the past few months.
