Hey, I am also new to BTT and was having the same issue. But after reading through older forum posts, I changed some settings and since today morning, I don't seem to have the issue. So, perhaps you can try this too....

1. From the Apple menu bar, open BetterTouchTool \> Preferences
2. Under Standard Settings \> Basic \> General section, enable 'Launch BetterTouchTool on Startup'
3. Under Standard Settings \> Touch Bar \> Advanced tab, set 'After sleep, wait before reinitialising Touch Bar' to, say, 2 seconds. It is 0 by default. This is the most important setting, which solved the problem.
4. Under Advanced Settings \> General stuff section, enable 'Restart BTT after wake from sleep'
