wierd a/c problem 850

My 1995 Volvo 850 GLT has an interesting problem. First, last month the A/C stopped cooling down the cabin, and we took it to the AC shop ( very reputable ) . They leak tested and re-charged it , and couldn't find the leak, so we paid and left with the car , knowing full well, we may have to return in the future for another re-charge, and possible leak sealer. ( He couldn't find any leak so he said it is most likely in the evap. )
The problem now is that when we first go for a drive, the a/c works great for about 5 minutes, then it stops working , and blows warm air. When we stop for about 10 minutes and get in the car again, it works again for about 5 minutes and then warms up again. This has been going on since we got it recharged.
Any suggestions?
Thanks:
ian
