Your trouble is you've "limited the limits", so clients don't know they're 
going to
be asked to authenticate until they send the PUT (or POST/etc) request.
At the same time, you evidently have clients that are either new or too dumb
to remember their credentials (a debug client might present itself as new
more often than an operational one).

If the upload is actually happening, it also means HTTP's conditional request
(Expect / 100-Continue) isn't happening.  That could be for many reasons:
hopefully it's not a server bug(!)  Does it happen with all clients?  Is there a
proxy involved?  What Apache version?
