Flatpak asks for password several times

$

Using kubuntu 23.10, I enabled flatpak in Discover. Now everything works, including installing an app but everytime I tried, flatpak will ask me for my password several times (around a dozen times or so !) which seems related to the way flatpak install something (module to install ? password, repo to check ? password etc).This is incredibly annoying.Do you see any solution to this please ? At least some kind of restriction that will only ask for the password once ?

additional notes :
  • I'm using flatpak without sudo for the current user. While I obvisously understand why flatpak will need my password, I can't really understand why it needs it more than a dozen of times (and I don't have this issue in Fedora, while using the same workflow)
  • Using sudo (for flatpak install/update) solves the issue in a terminal but not in Discover.
  • Is it a policykit behavior ?
