744 Start Issue

I’m trying to understand an issue with an APU. Is there some guidance from Boeing under what conditions the APU Bleed Valve will close automatically during a load demand during start? As soon as the fuel cut off switch is positioned to run during an auto start the duct pressure starts dropping and then the APU bleed valve closes. It cannot be reopened!
Anyone have some pointers.
