I am also happy to report that after installing Marco Trevisan's patch on 05SEP2014 I am no longer experiencing this glitch. Usually I was experiencing this glitch daily to every other day but have not since patching it.
Thank you Marco Trevisan for taking the time to work this glitch, it is greatly appreciated!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311316 Title: After locking screen there is no input field to type password for unlock Status in Unity: Triaged Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Sometimes (but not always) after locking the screen there is the situation not having any input field where I can type the password to unlock the session again.
