Without seeing it firsthand, the cause is pure speculation on my part. That being said, is it possible there is moisture behind the area that is causing the paint to fail. The other scenario could be a substance that is on the stucco causing the paint to fail. One possible remedy is to apply a primer such as Kilz, to cover the problem area. I know it's not a lot of help, but without seeing it, I can't say for sure.
