Deloptes says he's seen this "before

using some "software" that is both "wrong" enough not to process the
answer to the right place but "right" enough not to throw some usable
error - but this is a very theoretical guess and I'm afraid I'm totaly
unable to go scout the code to find what it could be.
I suspect it to be something dbus related, but usually when I get the issue
it is when I'm no in the local lan, but somewhere on the road and want to
configure the wicd to use some other wlan.
The workaround is to cancel all the prompts.
Perhaps you could create a new user and login first to TDE with that user.
Check the kwallet as well and if the user is in the sudo group (this because
you mentioned something about ksu).
I have no issue with TDE apps. I would love to use network manager instead
of wicd, but it turned out it is linked to systemd ...
