Public bug reported: System Settings -> Universal Access -> Typing -> Screen keyboard is initially disabled.
When it is enabled, it may (I can't remember whether or not it did the first time) ask whether you wish to activate it on the dialogue to unlock the screen (stating that Onboard is configured to appear then, but it is disabled in the system). If it does, say yes. Now lock the screen. The on-screen keyboard shows. Turn off the on-screen keyboard in System Settings. Now lock the screen. The on-screen keyboard shows; I didn't want it to. That's why I turned it off. There is a gsettings option which is pertinent to this, org.gnome.desktop.screensaver.embedded-keyboard-enabled. This is accessible through Onboard Settings (wholly outside gnome-control- center) by unticking "Show when unlocking the screen". While it is possible to disable it from Onboard Settings, it should be disabled from the Control Centre in the same way. The current behaviour is confusing and unsettling.
