Bug Description
OK, So I went out for a walk for 30mins and left my computer unlocked.
It's set to turn off the screen after 10mins and then lock it. And show the login prompt when I go to use it.. you know.
So I get back and the screens are NOT off and the primary screen is on and all my stuff can still be seen. But my secondary screen is locked and black.
I cant click anything on the primary screen so I guess the lock screen is there, but I cant login like I do later in the video. I try some keyboard short-cuts and accidently drop to tty0 and then back to tty7, now the screen is black and I can see the mouse SO i assume the login-box IS there I just cant see it as when I hit ESC the mouse vanishes which is usually how the lockscreen works.
SO i click, type in my password and hit enter and w00t its unlocked. No idea why it did this.
Video of trying to get in when I got back: http://

I can confirm this bug, happened to me yesterday. It does this every time the screen is not manually locked, but automatically after some time.
