I can't reproduce this with the current version of josm (r4143). Please consider updating to a newer version instead of using the package provided by your distribution. If you can reproduce this error with a current version, please reopen this ticket.

If you want josm to be updated automatically you can use my script which can be found on ​github, see also: ​Readme.
