Perhaps this problem is specific to policy-enforced PINs? Would you be willing to hard reset your device and attempt to set a simple PIN prior to setting up your activesync and see if you see the same behavior? If you do then it may relate to the mix of OEMs you've included.
Soft reset your device while it is enabled.. then let the password screen fully load. I tested it by just setting the password. It happens nearly every time after a soft reset, and randomly when the device is put to sleep.

Edit:

More detailed Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to settings and lock
2. Select Simple PIN as your password type and set a password of at least 5 digits
3. Soft reset your phone
4. Wait for the device to fully load (IE the tool bar theme has loaded and the phone has found a signal)
5. Now try to unlock the phone with your pin.
