[Bug 872701] [NEW] Cannot enter correct password after suspend

 

Public bug reported:

STR:
 1) Suspend the computer
 2) Resume so that screen lock dialog waits for password
 3) Set correct keyboard layout and enter password
 4) Returned to desktop

AR:
 At step 3, no matter which keyboard layout I set (I have US and US-dvorak and toggle with double-shift) the password which I enter is never accepted. I am forced to switch to a tty, login there (with the same password) and kill X - or is there an easier workaround where I can unlock the screensaver with a command?

Note: I use multiple layouts on another oneiric laptop and do not see
this issue.
