I am sorry for the delay but we have been getting conflicting information from the pokerstars team. We were informed it was a bug in their software so we decided to wait for them to fix their bug. After their last update and no change in the behavior we decided to email them again for confirmation as to whether this was indeed a bug, or new intended behavior, and got more conflicting information.
We got this reply from them one day:

We are aware of the problems. This is not intended behaviour, so this is indeed a bug. We are currently in process of getting these resolved for the February build.
And this reply/resend from them less than 24 hours later:

Sorry. Our programming team has done some additional research in the code and have come back to me saying this is not a bug. Apparently this behaviour is intended and it has been like this for years. I wasn't aware of this.
Apparently, if a preferred seat is not defined in Preferred Seat settings, after getting moved to a new table, you automatically get seated at the seat matching the previous table.
I haven't been able to play on stars since Black Friday but I am fairly certain it has not been like this 'for years' as they suggest here. We have tasked our testers with trying to get to the bottom of this, but it will take some time to test, document, and implement a fix.
I realize it is an annoying bug if you aren't used to using preferred seating, but as you can see we have been experiencing similar annoyances in trying to determine if this is something we need to spend time fixing or if we should wait for pokerstars to fix it.
For now the only solution is to enable preferred seating in the pokerstars client and match that setting in the HM seating preferences.
