Title:
  switching users asks for password twice

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After a recent update to unity (I'm on 14.04 now), when I switch
  users, after entering my password, I see the screen, and then the
  screensaver kicks in and asks for my password again... that
  essentially means after switching users, I need to enter my password
  twice...

  1)
  alex@thinkpad:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch)
  Release:	14.04

  2)
  alex@thinkpad:~$ apt-cache policy unity
  unity:
