Delay on opening / closing top?

Over the past year or so my 98 Boxster has developed an interesting quirk. If I turn the ignition on (engine running or not) to put the top up or down, I have to hold the switch for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before the top starts moving.

This happens going up or down. Once it starts, the switch works normally. It has nothing to do with setting the brake, or opening the upper latch (if the top is initially closed).

I think, but I'm not sure, that if I was to start the car (or maybe just ignition on) and wait for like 5 minutes, the top would work immediately.

Has anyone seen anything like this?
