Backup keeps asking for Encryption Password while restoring

I'm attempting to restore from a previous backup but the restore keeps asking me for an Encrypted Password. I enter what I want it to be but it shows up some thirty seconds later to ask again. Why is this?

Sounds like a bug? File one at https://launchpad.net/deja-dup/+filebug, provide the logs it asks for, and I might be able to help.

One thing though is that you mention entering what you want the password to be? When restoring, you should be entering the same password you used when originally backing up.
