The problem seemed to go away. I was some other password request. Sudo password requests always have the string '[sudo]' in it so I can tell where it came from. This prompt just asked 'Password: '. Anyway I cannot reproduce it now so I guess it is resolved. Thank you and sorry for the 'false alarm'.
