I'm betting you need to clean the NSS. When you put in neutral then back in park you make it move ever so slightly that it started on next attempt.
I had put off my NSS cleaning so long that i had to hold the ign in start position as i gently moved shifter in neutral to make the contact to start. Once i cleaned it two years ago or better it has never given me an issue.
Or... you may have a CPS thats getting flaky and on it's way out. The NSS is a free repair.. i'd attempt that first.
