I don't think this has anything to do with Dired, beyond the fact that you initiated the deletion there.

You apparently neglected, in your description/recipe, to say that you also, sometime prior to trying to trash the file, visited it, so there is a buffer visiting it. (And you neglected to say that you have optiondelete-by-moving-to-trashset to non-nil.

So when you open a file it creates a 'buffer' with the file's contents. The first yes moves the physical file to the trash. But the 'buffer' is still loaded in Emacs. If you say no to the second option you can still view the file in Emacs even though it's in the trash can. If this is too redundant I think this answer has the proper solution (although admittedly I have not tested it myself).
