I have the same problem with I3 Mega S connected to OctoPrint on my Windows PC and MEGA_S_TMC_BLT_10_v1.5 fw. I must disconnect the USB connection between print jobs, otherwise it also sinks into the bed after the initial endstop trigger. Likewise, I also use both endstop switches for Z axis and original BLTouch with TMC 2209.
This may be completely unrelated; correlation does not equal causation, however...
I changed my Start G-code from what I had to the code listed on this site and when I did, I also had the issue that the nozzle would home OK and then promptly sink into the bed and drag. When I investigated, the line G1 Z0.15 was what was triggering that action so I removed it.
To be transparent, I was also working on a bunch of other stuff at the same time and had forgotten that I needed to re-evaluate the Z offset after changing the hotend. PEBKAC in full effect.
You may want to isolate which command in g-code is causing the unwanted behaviour. I am on 1.5.4 with a Mega S and BLTouch but I have the original stepper drivers (until next week).
I have an intermittent endstop problem when starting printing. The first detection by the Z axis switch goes well and when it straightens it sinks into the bed. I updated to 1.5.4 seeing this bugfix (Fix ignored z endstop when only one endstop is used) but it doesn't seem to have worked for me. The solution I found is to do a power reset between each print.
Here is my printer information:
