Please try the version of Unity from https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-
ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-004 -- this is the current Ubuntu
14.04 LTS update in the process of landing, and I believe it contains a
fix for this problem.

Title:
  Unity in lockscreen mode does not allow password entry

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

Bug description:
  Sometimes, when I come back to my computer after locking it, the
  password field is not displayed. This means I cannot enter the
  password, and I have to do an ungraceful shutdown of my X session.

  It only happens when the workstation has been running for a while
  (usually a few weeks) which leads me to suspect a memory leak, or
  similar.

  The unlock dialog box appears, but the password field is not rendered.
