OK. I installed it and set up the [potd] shortcode on the front page, however I can’t see any problems. It could be that it only happens under very specific circumstances (how are you actually using it – in a static front page, embedded in a template with do_shortcode(), some other method?) or it could be more complicated then a conflict between just our two plugins – it might only exist with your particular theme or when some other plugin is active.
Right now I’m afraid I can’t see the problem so there isn’t a huge amount I can do here.
