That's because of the node "Gas Resize Fluid Dynamic". If there is no smoke at all after the first frame or the amount of density is below the value of "Field Cutoff" is going to resize the bounding box to the origin. 

If you are sourcing is SOPs you can use the "Tracking Object" options so the bounding box is going to be at least as big as your source. Alternatively you can use "Delay Frames", but this is going to calculate the full bounding box for the amount of frames specified here
