[Catalyst] Transferring control via root/auto

Here is my problem,
If a user logs in for the 1st time I want to force them to change their
password. I have a specific action in my Users controller to handle
that. What I'm having a problem with is (redirecting or forwarding or
detaching - i've tried them all) from the root/auto function to my
specific controller function. I either get an internal server error or
page isn't redirecting properly, depending what i use. I've put my
logic in the root/auto because regardless of the request changing their
password is mandatory.
Here is my current root/auto using redirect.
sub auto : Private {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
if ($c->user_exists()&& $c->check_any_user_role('User')
&& $c->user->changePassword ) {
$c->res->redirect($c->uri_for($c->controller('Users')->action_for('loginedit'),
[$c->user->id] ));
$c->detach();
}
return 1;
}
Any help would be appreciated.
