You may be pleased to hear that this has been reported as bugs #644534 and #683257. In future, you may try switching to a virtual console and running "xscreensaver-command -display :0 -exit" (though you may need to fiddle with xset permissions, YMMV). Alternatively, just restarting lightdm should work, too.
