I think this is a random bug in iOS 8. The only fix I'm aware of is a reboot.

I have had it happen a few times. Bugs the heck out of me. Most times I have rotation lock on.

Yep, just a ransom annoyance. It doesn’t happen a lot, but can be frustrating when it does occur. Usually pushing the sleep/wake button a couple of times will resolve it. I don’t recall having to reboot the device to resolve.
