Firefox 85.0.1 (64-bit) on Mac OS X (10.15.7) Pops up "Password Required" dialog periodically. These dialogs stack such that I have 10's of dialogs all asking for the same PIN when I return to my computer.

First, I'm not sure why this is popping up when I'm not even using the browser. Second, I think this is basically a user experience issue. Once you've asked for the password, you shouldn't stack more requests dialogs asking for the same thing.

When I return to my computer after a long enough time, I can spend minutes typing my PIN over and over (or hitting Cancel I guess) getting these dialogs to go away.
