Default Key remote weirdness

One of my keys has started doing a strange thing: the car won't react to the remote buttons, despite the light on the remote coming on. When this happens, if I unlock with the door, then put the key in the ignition, then remove and relock, mostly this will make the remote work again for a while. When this doesn't solve it, when I drive the car will auto lock the doors once I get moving, which is a feature not activated in my car. Whenever the remote decides to start working again, the lock-on-driving feature goes back away too. Anybody have any idea? Battery is fresh.

Ended up being the key battery.
