The same thing happened on my Audi Allroad. It needed a new latching mechanism.

well it sounds like the door latch (lock arm) is not staying in the locked position. if you're meacanically inclined remove the actuator and inspect for broken parts or abnormal wear. if you cant then take it to the dealership.
for some reason i dont think your latch might be at fault.
