Double login with SMF1.1RC2?

[cowgirlexpressions]

I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and Joomla/SMF1.1RC2:
--When the user logs in to the site via the SMF login, and then clicks onto the Coppermine link, the user seems to be asked to log in again, because the login form reappears.  However, it seems as tho the login was successful, because the user seems to have all access rights to Coppermine.   

Coppermine install: http://www.runninghorses.net/gallery/
Forum install: http://www.runninghorses.net/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.4
Forum version: SMF1.1RC2
Test user account: testuser / testpass

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://www.runninghorses.net/forum/
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../forum/Settings.php (I think?)
Use post-based groups?:  not sure?

Seems to be just a theme issue. I doubt that login box is aware if you are logged in or not.
