Title:
  At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10.  This morning, I couldn't type my
  password in at the login prompt.  It was as if the keyboard was not
  being recognized.  I verified that there was a prompt in the password
  box, so it's not an input focus issue.

  What's interesting is that if I hit Capslock, a capslock warning icon
  appears in the password box, so obviously the keyboard is functioning,
  but just not allowing me to type my password in.

  [Workaround] However, if I mouse click on the on-screen keyboard icon
  at the top of the screen (the icon's shaped like a little man), and
  then click back on the password box, keyboard input is recognized and
  I can finally type my password in.

  Once logged in, the keyboard works fine.

  I think this is not a keyboard driver issue, but a login screen issue.
