My client's site http://antoniniandcohen.com is automatically redirecting to /es/ rather than /en/ on the homepage, despite the fact that the site default language is English.
I'm not an expert in Joomla or Multilang, so here are some details:
Joomla! 3.2.7 Stable [ Ember ] 30-September-2014 14:00 GMT
Looking at the Language Manager Extension, I have 2 languages installed: English (default) and Spanish.
The Plugin System - Language Filter options are as follows:
Language Selection for new Visitors: Site Language
Automatic Language Change: Yes
Item associations: Yes
Remove URL Language Code: No
Cookie Lifetime: Session
Add alternate meta tags: Yes
Just to be sure, I checked the database and row named com_languages in the _extensions table has the following as params: {"administrator":"en-GB","site":"en-GB"}, so that seems to be good.
Here are some additional details and curiosities that I've been able to scrape together:
I put in an .htaccess rule to try to override this, and it is not working RedirectMatch 302 ^/$ /en
If you run the site with caches disabled, the error does NOT occur
I recently made an exact local copy of the site, and the error does NOT occur
When you visit the site and check the network log, there is a 303 redirect triggered for the /es/ site (details from redirect-checker.org):

Any idea what this could possibly be? Any help is appreciated because this is a bit over my head!
