Are you unplugging the cable, or turning off the VT/PC/whatever you use for
a serial console?  It sounds like the VLC's getting a BREAK on the console
port, which will drop it to the prom prompt.  I don't know if there's a
setting to ignore BREAKs on the console in the VLC firmware.  You might try
just leaving the console plugged in and turned on, if at all possible.
