Default Power lock driver side will NOT stay locked when I press the lock button!

I just changed the driver side power window regulator w/ motor and thought everything was working, but then noticed this strange behavior with the door lock button.

Oddly though, if I press the lock button from the key fob, the driver side will stay locked.

What makes it even stranger is sometimes when I press the lock button from the door, it will chime or ding, almost like the sound when you forget to put your seat belt on. But usually if I press it again, it will lock, but of course it still always automatically unlocks itself. All the other doors are working fine.

Also, if I move the lock manually on the door, it will stay locked.

So it only seems to be when I use the lock button on the door that it keeps unlocking itself. The chime noise seems to only happen when I press the lock key from the door, though it has chimed sometimes from the key fob, but if I press it again, it will usually lock. This chiming sound really baffles me, I have no idea what or why it does this almost randomly when I press the lock button, even sometimes from the key fob.

Any ideas or suggestions?
