this happens because the layers from the Openlayers Plugin are not
available at every scale, but only at certain scale levels (so when you
add such layers all the project is available only at preset scales).

In the composer you then need to manually set the scale of the map
object to be one of those scale levels, otherwise you'll get the
described issue.
