I've even tried to tighten all the bolts on the chainring and crank, they are already tight. This has me baffled.

A loose kickstand would not happen all of the time. We have seen several similar cases when the kickstand was loose so it hit only intermittently. A light push could make the stand hit or not hit. Would drive the person nuts and the correlation really threw people off as it was intermittent... Sometimes only a slight tap that feels like a creek.

Good luck.
