It can happen when you connect the device. If it is only happening when you send another book, it is because of one of the preferences you have set in calibre. I usually recommend that on the "Sending books to devices" page of the preferences, that you set the "Metadata management" option to "Automatic management". Then, after sending books to the device, eject it and let the device import the books. Then connect the device again and let calibre update the series info and other metadata.
Thanks for your reply. I'll test it as you suggest
