Data frames that have layers that were labeled when the Advanced ArcMap Settings option 'Rotate labels with data frame rotation' checked on will always rotate labels on any layer in that data frame, regardless of if the layer was added and labeling applied after the 'Rotate labels with data frame rotation' setting was unchecked.
