Policy Kit opens the authorization dialogue not in the active user but in "one of the open sessions" waiting for root password to mount an usb-key. Standard installation of opensuse 13.2 Create several users e.g. A, B, C, D Open these users in sequence. Change e.g. from user B, to C, To A and finally to D. Insert an usb-key while user D is active and open and the other sessions are in background. The authorization request for the root password will open in the wrong user-personality. Only going there, then closing there the request, going back to the user D in question, will make you find the correct authorization window. There does not seem to be a pattern to foresee where the authorization request will pop up. What happens: user waits for the authorization window to occur but it opens in a wrong personality. What should happen: the authorization request should be presented to the user who did actually insert the usb-key. Reproducible: stable, always.
