It always has to me. Especially when setting usbdebug=5, umsdebug=5.
It occurs with a USB_DEBUG kernel when those variables are not set,
but hasn't when they are set.

In all of these cases, it primarily occurs when one unlocks a locked
kde session - just after the passwd widget is destroyed, but it
has occurred when xscreensaver was woken up and there was no kde
session lock.
