accessibility virtual keyboard showing up after screen lock resume

Bug Description

I turned the accessibility keyboard on just to test it and then I disabled it. From that moment on, after the screen is blocked (automatically or manually) the virtual keyboard shows up together with the authentication window to unblock the screen, even though in the configuration settings this feature is disabled.

I really couldn't find out what package is responsible for this behavior. I'm not sure if this is caused by gnome-control-center-2.0, or by any other package that is set by it to call the virtual keyboard at that specific moment.

Running Ubuntu 11.10 amd64

Same problem happening with GNOME Shell 3.2.2.1, when activating Screen keyboard once through the accessibility menu.

I found the cause of the annoyance. For some reason, the virtual keyboard (Onboard) is automatically set, probably by gnome-accesibility, to show up when the screen is locked. Launching Onboard Settings and unchecking "Show Onboard when unlocking the screen" obviously stops this behavior.
