I had the same problem and I was really confused because without any reason user was redirected to login page means that he wasn't authorized. I had changed the timeout to more than 8 hours but nothing was changed. After reading many pages such as Aspnet unexpected logout or frequent-unexpected-user-logoff I found that something is wrong with the machine key and after checking machine key in web.config file I could detect the problem with machine key. By changing the machine key and make it the same with others in Owin section everything is working well.
