That is the expected behavior.   If a call is received with a From
header that matches a configured user, then it is challenged for
authentication.   Doing this preemptive authentication saves doing more
processing on requests we're going to end up challenging later anyway,
and makes things work better when some forks for a call require a
permission and others do not.
