Frame 0 is too dark

Frame 0 renders too dark (in some cases it's just black) when it is part of an animation. Does anyone else have this problem?

no motion blur in these scenes. I've also found if I stop the render, say at frame 10, and then restart from there, it'll be frame 10 that is dark.

I have seen this too, a bit darker and much more grainy on frame 0 for some kind of reason.

it doesn't even need to be frame 0. If I start a sequence at any frame, the very first frame to render kinda messes us. It starts rendering ok, and then the progress bar jumps quickly to the end, as though it is finding those samples somewhere. The next frames to render are all ok, just that first one in a sequence is wrong. Will this be sorted in the next release?

please also fix 0 frame. it is ok if it is only one but since render freezes every 30 frames or less it is a problem in 2.04. So 5 releases and it still freezes. PLEASE FIX IT!! thanks
