Hi, as of a couple months ago, Firefox has started asking for the primary password multiple times. It used to only do it once when it syncs after startup. But now I sometimes get the popup for the primary password multiple times. I haven't figured out a way to reproduce since it seems to randomly pop up, even when I'm not actively doing something in the browser. I believe this started happening after an update but I can't pin down the actual onset of this problem so I'm not sure. Does anyone else experience the same thing?
