[Bug 1349128] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 login screen doesn't accept keyboard input (until using indicators)

 

When not accepting/showing input from the keyboard, there is the usual
vertical blinking line in the password box (so: 'showing' it is
accepting input there), with the word "password" in the background of
that password box.

Would it help if I post a picture of video of what goes (or: doesn't go)
on?

Title:
  Ubuntu 14.04 login screen doesn't accept keyboard input (until using
  indicators)

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04 login screen doesn't accept keyboard input in the
  password box after my system has resumed from a sleep (=lid opening),
  so I can't relogin anymore

  Excpected behaviour: the login screen should accept keyboard input and
  show them as stars in the password box.

  Workaround: click on "switch user" in the upper right corner, after
  which keyboard input is accepted again.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  System is fully updated. Problem started to happen one or two weeks
  ago, so around mid July 2014.
