First, I'm not sure what "the 'suspendbitlocker' key ... in the Registry" is as properly suspending BitLocker involves more than just setting a value in the registry. The most common method is using manage-bde from the command-line or Suspend-BitLocker from PowerShell.
Next, there are many different "things" that may trip a BitLocker recovery and to determine the root cause here, you must examine the BitLocker event log in detail.
