[Scott Ritchie <scottritchie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've done apport-collect and can confirm the issue is still there.  I
will note I am also having other lock screen issues:

I have my laptop closed, on AC power, and plugged into a monitor +
keyboard.  The power settings say "do nothing" when lid is closed.

If I wait 10 minutes, I hear the drums.  I can then see the lock screen
on the monitor briefly.  The laptop then suspends.

To resume I have to open the laptop lid and enter my password.  I then
see my desktop for 2 seconds, then hear the drums again, see the new
lock screen, and have to enter my password a second time.  When I then
reclose my laptop lid, the screen locks a third time (this time without
drum sounds), and again I have to enter my password a third time to get
back to work.

Needless to say, this is a completely ridiculous ritual.

If I open the screen, unplug the monitor, but leave the AC power
attached, and then wait, I see the screen fade out, then I hear the
drums at the lock screen.  So in either case there are drums when there
shouldn't be.

I don't have a separate bug yet for the 3 login issue as I'm not sure
what component to file it against.

Title:
  Drums sound when screen locks

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since Trusty, the drums now sound when the screen locks.  To
  reproduce, just leave your computer untouched for 10 minutes.

  I believe this is an unintentional side-effect of the use of unity-greeter instead of gnome-screensaver.  I can't see any usability benefit, and it can even be mildly annoying.
