Using the code below,

I noticed it works the first time.

emacs -q -mm -l test.el

I do M-x save-buffers-kill-terminal

then run

emacs -q -mm -l test.el

it has the described problem.

If I repeat this sequence, it works then does not work in that order every
time.

(let ((shell-cmd "ls -la")
      (output-buffer "my-buf")
      (default-directory "/scpx:bangmyhead@192.168.0.46:~/")
      (process-name "my-proc"))
  (start-file-process-shell-command
   process-name
   (get-buffer-create output-buffer)
   shell-cmd)
  (switch-to-buffer output-buffer)
  (with-current-buffer output-buffer
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (find-file-other-window "~/readme.org")))


note: the other window opens horizontally.
