I have configured deja-dup so that it backups daily to a SMB server share. This works fine when I'm at the computer. When I'm not there, the deja-dup password prompt for the SMB share pops up. Then, if I don't enter the password within a certain time, even with the correct password I get a DBus error message and the backup fails.
deja-dup should prompt for the password and open the connection only after having received a password. Or it should automatically retry when it gets a timeout error without having to prompt again.

This bug still exists in the current deja-dup version of Ubuntu trusty 14.04.3. Since this is quite a serious bug (backups not being performed when they should), can this perhaps be looked at? Thank you!
