My 2004 KIA Optima will stall after sitting overnight if I don't let it warm up about 5 minutes. When it stalls, I must wait a few minutes and it will start fine and I will have no more problems with it until the next time after the car has not been operated overnight.

Has the check engine light come on? Have you checked for issues with the idle air control valve (IAC)?
