When working in bash vi mode, I sometimes notice I have to press A, a, I or i twice to get into insert mode. Any idea what's causing this?

As mrucci said, the problem is pressing Esc twice. However, since he only commented and did not create an answer, this question is still listed as “unanswered”. Therefore I shamelessly create an answer. ;)
ESC
twice. I hate this behavior of bash/readline.
