Bitlocker: On start-up sometimes asks for keyboard and recovery key

We have a few Windows 8 machines.

We have BitLocker installed on all of them, along with a required Password on start-up.

Every now and again it asks the user for a keyboard layout, recovery key or both. Why is this?

Could it be related to updates being installed?

this should be same in windows 8.
