Title:
  Lock screen password input directed to background window

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am using Ubuntu 14.04.1, the version of unity-services I am using is
  7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 (one update behind).

  When the screen was locked, I went to click the password input box to bring up the text cursor. When typing in the password prompt, no stars showed up to indicate anything was entered into the password input box, and pressing enter did nothing.
  Eventually I logged in by clicking out and in the password input field to re-bring-it-into-focus. I discovered that the text I entered into the password box at first was sent to a friend in Steam chat.

  Although it looked like the password input box in the lock screen had
  focus and was accepting input, it was a chat window hidden behind the
  lock screen that accepted the password input.
