So I can only guess what might happen here:

- Your `dired' has some large toolbar and the window manager tries to
  fit the frame to that toolbar.  This should be fairly easy to check.

- You use some add-on which fits the frame width to that of the dired
  buffer.  This should be easy to check too.

Otherwise, you will have to run edbug on `dired' and check whether and
where within `switch-to-buffer' it resizes the frame.  If this doesn't
help either, you'll have to search your .emacs for the offender.
