I had this and i disconnected the battery for 5mins and it sorted it.

It sounds to me like the switch within the door is faulty - sticking in the unlock position) or a broken wire. I cant be anymore specific untill I know the model year. When you attempt to lock the vehicle wih the key in the drivers door, I presume tha only ths door is locking, before immediately unlocking, and the other doors remain in the unlocked position throuhout.
