Live Adjust Z: Every print seems to need progressively more offset

I've been printing successfully for a long time but something funny just started happening. I recently did a Z cal after needing to disassemble some things to pull out a jammed filament. After I calibrated I printed a simple test to live adjust Z .. I found that a setting of about -1.0 mm worked well. On my next print though I could see really poor adhesion so I had to again go to live adjust Z and set it to -2.0 mm to get it to work ... now on my 3rd print .. you guessed it .. I had to go to -3mm. It's as if it keeps forgetting my live adjust value and going to the original Z setting .. and I have to increment live adjust Z by 1.0 mm every time. Any ideas on what may be happening? Thanks!!

I had exactly the same problem. Only after "Calibration -> First layer cal." was executed, the setting remained permanently saved. Before that, live Z had to be adjusted for each print.
