Package: systemd
Version: 215-17+deb8u3
Severity: normal

Hello,

I run multiple openvpn instances, each of which requires the
entry of username and password to authenticate at the remote
end.  So, they are started manually with commands like:

  systemctl start openvpn@foo

The first instance starts with no issues.  It prompts for username and
password as expected.  The second also prompts for username and
password, and starts as expected, but broadcatss the message:

  Broadcast message from root@example (Wed 2016-01-27 13:01:26 CST):

  Password entry required for 'Enter Auth Username:' (PID 2717).
  Please enter password with the systemd-tty-ask-password-agent tool!

The above appears in every open terminal window, interrupting
work flow.

I would expect that systemd would handle the 2nd startup like the
first, without disruption of every terminal.

I am filing this against the systemd package rather than openvpn on
the assumption that either every package was converted for use with
systemd in a similar fashion or that there's an underlying issue with
systemd.  Apologies if this is not the case.
