Your ~/.Xauthority appears to be broken - for whatever reasons.
Can this happen during working at the machine? Or would it solve the problem if I delete the .Xauthority and start with a fresh one?
Such issues are very hard to reproduce. I suggest to make a copy when you start a Xsession and copy it back to ~/.Xauthority when this issue occurs.
But exactly here lies the problem. I do not always have a konsole or xterm open. So when I discover that there is something amiss, I will be unable to copy any files (unless I switch to text console, but this would be quite unconvenient).
I'm sorry, that I don't have a better proposal at this point. Hope it helps nevertheless.
