Well that's a new one.

Will the window wind right down?
If so, whats it like when it's wound back up?
I assume there is some kind of resistance, when it pops the lock?

Maybe the window carriage is out of alignment
and is hitting the connecting rod from the door handle to the lock assembly.
Also, the connecting rod from the door handle to the lock assembly, might not be seated properly and interfering with the window mechanism.
Best bet, is to take off the door trim and have a look at what actually happens while the window is wound down.
