This is likely a factor of how unix works rather than puppet. When puppet starts up, it reads nsswitch.conf. If you modify nsswitch.conf during the puppet run, it will not see the changes until after the process has restarted and sees the new nsswitch.conf file.
I have gotten around this by putting the LDAP config in a stage prior to main and restarting puppet within that stage, so that puppet restarts itself before processing the main stage. It's a bit clunky and painful to manage the dependancy trees, but it works.
