Not really. If I knew why user32 sometimes failed to load, I would be glad. However, you didn't mention which authentication method you're using(*) to switch to another user. Since that's cron, password authentication isn't an option anyway. From the passwordless methods, method one is the default, so I assume you're using it. Did you try to switch to method 2 or 3 and see if that works?
