Reset Circuitry
It appears that the output voltage of the power supply raises that slow, that the MCU will not handle the reset correctly.
The following circuitry should generate a valid reset signal far enough from the raise of the supply voltage:
The circuit generates the following signals:
3.3V 22k / 22k + 10k = 2.2V
