Running 10.13.2

The last few days every time I wake from sleep my screen is black for a few seconds with the apple logo in white and a loading bar below that looks roughly 95% full. This screen flashes for maybe 2 seconds and then returns to my desktop.

I did install 3rd party RAM about a week or two ago. No idea if that is related or not. This strange screen did not appear immediately after installing the new RAM.

Would appreciate any ideas/suggestions. Thanks.
 
I'm on 10.13.3 beta 17D25b and I've been having this issue for several weeks on various public betas. It looks like the startup load screen. It does this coming out of sleep mode and doesn't happen all of the time.

I've been having this same problem with my Mac Mini (2014), has anyone found a solution? It happens so randomly, that I don't even know where to beging to troubleshoot. I wish I could remember when it started, I believe it was sometime after the 10.13.2 or 10.13.3 update, I was hoping 10.13.4 would fix it, but here I am running 10.13.5 and it happened again.
