TPS61178: Cant boot under load

Part Number: TPS61178

Tool/software:

Specific Component: 

Hello, 

I use TPS611781RNWR to convert the voltage of two Lithium-Ion cells (7.2V) to 12 V.

I have the following schematics (based on W-Bench):

For the load I attached 16 Ohm resulting in current of 0.72 A. 

When I connect the batteries while no load is attached, the output voltage looks fine, and continues working after attaching the load.

When I connect the same load before attaching the batteries, the output voltage is at ~1.1 x Vin, and I can hear noise. 

Green is Vin and Yellow is Vout:
The time between each peak is about 1.7ms.

I also measured the SW pin: Vout is yellow, SW is green:

Any idea on how to debug/solve this?

Thank you very much!
