First of all make sure that the output of "which su" is "/bin/su". Then run su
under strace ( ie "strace su"). 
Enter your password when prompted for. Now use konsole's search function to
search for your password. 
You should get two matches:

read(0, "HUNTER2\n", 123) = 8
write(56, "HUNTER2\0", 8) = 8

Where HUNTER2 is your password and the last number is the length of your
password + 1. If everything seems to be right, then either your password is
wrong or it is an upstream bug.
