[Bug 1291088] Re: Doesn't unlock when coming back from the greeter

 

I was going to make a new report, but I am almost positive that this is
the same issue but with a different trigger.

My computer is only a single user, but sometimes when I unlock the
screen from being inactive, a new lock screen pops up seconds after
unlocking.

Procedure:
Since I upgraded to the developer version I have had this issue several times. I leave the computer unattended overnight. The power settings are not configured to allow the computer to go to sleep. When I come back, I log into the lock screen and it unlocks. I can interact with the desktop for a few seconds before the screen turns black for a few second and a lock screen pops up again. Shorter durations of inactivity-triggered "locked" time do not seem to replicate this behavior.

I do not really know where to look to gather more information.

  Doesn't unlock when coming back from the greeter

Bug description:
  Using the new unity-lock-screen from the current candidate version:
  - run unity on a system with multiple users
  - click on another user in indicator-session

  -> the greeter is displayed with that user selected, so you can type
  the password to log in

  - select back your user and enter the password to unlock the session

  -> what happens: the session is unlocked then locked again just after that
  -> what should happen: the session should stay unlocked
