Description

Computer woke from sleep, and Keybase Mac UI prompted me to login. Whenever I try to login, i get the following error:

Unknown error: Error: Device already provisioned for current user

The command-line seems to be functioning fine. Once I Quit and restarted, it automatically logged me in fine.

(an aside: the error screen does not let me select to copy/paste out)

my log id: d14b899dc2331e300f0a491c

Research direction

Start with the Mac UI login flow after the computer wakes from sleep, then compare it with the functioning command-line path. Use log ID d14b899dc2331e300f0a491c to trace the “Device already provisioned for current user” error; done means the app can recover and log in without requiring a restart.
