Slideshows always start with the same div visible when random sort ordering is used and drupal's page/block caching is enabled (until the page's cache expires of course). I added some javascript to randomize which div is initially visible so that it continues to work even when cached.

Moving to 2.x will look at it in there.

This is fixed in 2.x with the use of the jquery cycle plugin.
