[Test case] 1. Open a window that will hold the grab, such as the ssh password dialog. 2. Wait for the lock screen to activate. 3. Enter your password to unlock the screen. [Regression potential] This particular fix doesn't fix all cases, but does fix it for some. That said, no new regressions are expected. * Debdiff is found at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/178439518/compiz- trusty-sru-2.debdiff * Original Description: My screen just timed out and locked when a password prompt which had a grab was displaying. I couldn't type my password or interact with the indicators. gnome-screensaver just refuses to lock in this situation, perhaps unity could do the same unless it's possible to remove and readd the grabs yourself, but I don't think XLib lets you do that (you can only remove your own grabs AFAIK).
