That happens if all of the doors aren't shut properly but I guess you've made sure they are closed.
I have had the same happen on a Xsara and it turned out to be a broken wire where the wiring comes in at the hinge area of the door, the break was at the back of the multi plug.

It could also be a sticking locking unit (the power lock) in one of the doors, even a sticking linkage.
As you tell it to lock the locking unit senses resistance and pops back open.
Try removing the door cards and lubing the linkage and the lock barrels.
