Why does fsck returns "unresolved ref root"
On my system btrfsck runs periodically at boot. When it is run I get the error message "unresolved ref root" in reference to a snapshot I created. Consequently the fsck gets re-run during the following boot repeating a time consuming process. I can disable fsck but I would like to fix any issues with my filesystem.
How do I diagnose the problem? The snapshot seems to function correctly when the filesystem is mounted. I do not remember the details of how I created the snapshot.
I appreciate any advice.

Current btrfsck does not fix anything, so it's easiest to just disable it on /etc/fstab (set the last character on "/" line to "0").
When new btrfsck is released you might want to try checking again.
