Hi TopBunk;
I've seen that occur a few times on both 320 and 340 fleet types. Usually it's a non-issue with a quick disconnect of the autopilot and autothrust, a regaining of the stabilized descent and re-engagement but it can be a real surprise for a crew new to the Airbus - not the case here. Going around and sorting it out is the other option.
