I am homing in on this, it appears to be oneconf that is doing it.
Immediately before the popup appears (or as it appears) data in
.cache/oneconf/..../package_list_... and host are updated and after a
valid pwd is entered last_sync is updated.

In auth.log the following is seen after entering the pwd, though I
don't know whether it tells us anything useful

It seems I am not the only one seeing this
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1474182

I suppose the next question is whether oneconf is doing its thing
(whatever that is) when it should not be, or whether it is requesting
a key when it should not.
