I guess it is you PAM configuration. If you use a client side password checker, e.g. pam_cracklib or pam_pwquality.so, in the password section of you PAM configuration you have to add the 'use_authtok' option to pam_sss in the section. If you do not use any checker you must not use 'use_authtok' here because sssd would expect a password to be available on the PAM stack but no module sets it. From your description I guess you do not have a client-side password checker but 'use_authtok' is set. If this is the case, please remove 'use_authtok' and try again.
