Description

This may only occur when one switches out the user to connect as in the middle of a session (by changing env.host_string), but a successful connection password is not carried over for use as a sudo password (it's automatically tried and then fails). See what's up and figure out if it's fixable without moving to a more serious per-user/host memory setup as seen in some other ticket.
