That would be the issue, assuming you are doing something along lines of
psql -d some_db -U postgres per:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/auth-pg-hba-conf.html
" The first record with a matching connection type, client address,
requested database, and user name is used to perform authentication.
There is no "fall-through" or "backup": if one record is chosen and the
authentication fails, subsequent records are not considered."
If you are not connecting as above, you will need to show us your
connection string.
