I have this problem from time to time too.

The only workaround I’ve thought of is to make a copy of the assembly elsewhere in the design space and rotate it to be parallel to the grid.  
It is bothersome if I make change and have to go thru the process again.

_But major changes require all new drawings anyway because deleting or adding a component breaks the previous drawing. (That’s a different issue so I digress)_

Edit: typo
