It doesn't happen all the time. I'll drive somewhere, park for a bit, then come back and it starts up fine.

I've not seen the car idle rough, and it drives fine. Would a vacuum leak cause this issue?
A vacuum leak wouldn't cause it to only happen at start up though. It would cause the idle to run higher than normal and most likely throw a code.
