If I go to system settings/display and monitor/screen saver and uncheck 
"require password after" that takes care of it. If that's not working 
for you then perhaps you are seeing the KDE wallet password dialog? If 
that's the case open KDE wallet/settings/configure wallet and uncheck 
close when screensaver starts.

HTH,
