I'm using fprint package for finger-print authentication on Ubuntu 14.04.
It's working perfectly for most things.

Some of the time when my laptop recovers from suspend, I am able to enter a 
password (or, after pressing Enter, a finger print instead).
But much of the time when it recovers from suspend, the lightdm (?) login 
screen instead says that authentication has timed out. For some reason I then 
have to wait a good 25 seconds before I get another chance. At that point, I am 
able to enter a password or fingerprint as normal.

When this problem occurs (most of the time), the machine wakes without
the fingerprint sensor activated (no light), but the login gui screen
prompt says something like "swipe your finger". It very quickly gives
up, and then says Authentication Timed Out and makes me wait a LONG
time. Note that during this time, no other users are listed on the
lightdm login screen, so I cannot click on another user or guest to log
in.

This "time out" should not be triggered during/after a suspend.
Also, if there is a time out for some reason, it should just wait the normal 2 
seconds required after entering an incorrect password.

I'm posting this here because it seems to be the fact that the
fingerprint scanner is somehow unavailable after waking, and maybe it is
fprintd that times out the authentication for so long.
