Sounds like the slide isn't going fully into battery. That will cause what you described to happen. If it occurs again pay close attention to the back of the slide and see if you can push it forward at all with your thumb...even just a hair movement forward means that it is not in full battery. This will cause the striker not to reset. There may be an obstruction somewhere preventing the slide from going forward or it could be bad/out of spec ammo/damaged case, etc keeping the round from chambering.
