The lock is in the camera, so any turning of the lens should not release it unless there is a problem in the camera. Maybe the locking pin/mechanism in the camera is worn. Have you tried mounting another lens and see if you can get it to turn without pushing the release button?

I tried with the standard kit lens and it seems solid. Even with the Sigma lens, normally I cannot get it to move without the lens release. It's just really odd that it's happened so frequently and I can't figure out the pattern.
