Possibly a volume thing?
3ohm speakers will draw more current than the 4ohm speakers it was designed for (someone will have to correct me if I'm wrong on that, it's been a while since I upgraded mine)
Assuming that's the case, the head unit may not like the extra current draw and is cutting out.
Either a new head unit or swapping to 4ohm speakers should fix it.
Not sure about the gen4 but I know the gen 3 head units are not that powerful.
Yeah in effect you are asking the head unit to work harder and it's protecting itself by switching off.

Lambert is correct, the output stages are shutting down due to the low impedance. It’s probably right on the edge, so sometimes it’s fine and other times it refuses. It most likely changes with temperature and battery voltage might impact on the sensing circuit.
I left the stock speakers in the front and fitted a pair of Pioneer to the rear, they weren’t expensive, about £15 I think and seem fine above the road noise.
