[Bug 1483868] [NEW] keyboard doesn't work after xscreensaver shuts down the monitor

 

Public bug reported:

I am experiencing the same symptoms as described in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/586528.
This bug report is new on request.

I run Xubuntu with XFCE, xscreensaver and Light Locker. Recently,
whenever I log back (twice, once through locker and once through
xscreensaver), the X11 applications are not accepting keyboard input. I
can switch desktops using keyboard shortcuts, though. What fixes the
issue for me is switching into a Terminal window. Then the keyboard
input start working.
