I have not had this happen on mine, ever. It could be something they did as an update, though, since I see your car is much younger.
What year is your car, McQuaid? And does your alarm only go off when opening the car? Does your alarm set when you lock the car with the key?
My sister installed an aftermarket in her Boxster (MY99), and afterward her alarm would go off every once in a while when she wasn't home or in the middle of the night, annoying her and the neighbors. The little metal contact I mentioned was the problem and was overlooked when the install happened. I think they put electrical tape on it, and the car's been fine since.
