cover,

Your picture indicates that is a wider than standard joint at that
transition. You may want to consider using grout that is made for wider
than standard joints. I don't know if the depot or lowes have that type
of grout, but I believe a regular tile supplier would.

I had wondered about 'house settling' but will probably wait to see if
the issue repeats itself now that I have re-grouted the joint. I wish
the 'expert' I had helping with this project or the flooring store who
knew where I was putting it (shower floor) would have mentioned
something about epoxy grout for shower floors though. Just have to
hope that I can keep it sealed well enough so as not to create issues,
I guess. Most sealant manufacturers recommend every 6 months to a
year.

Makes sense to me. I'd still be concerned about 'why' it's having
issues.
