Hi, I have this same problem and I encountered it after I started using systemd. For me the dialog shows org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-multiple-sessions as the reason.
My understanding is that it is dirmngr that causes this. loginctl shows: SESSION UID USER SEAT c1 112 dirmngr c2 1000 durin seat0 if I kill dirmngr the dialog requesting root password doesn't pop up.
