Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This particular bug has already been reported and is a duplicate of bug 49579, so it is being marked as such.

This is a fundamental bug in the design of X11 and cannot be easily fixed within X11.

You should manually lock your screen if a locked session is important to you.

Please continue to report any other bugs you may find.

I often experience this problem with 15.04 and now with 15.10 too.

When I open the lid of the laptop, it wakes up from suspend, and it should show me the (un)lock screen -- according to my settings. But it shows my desktop with all open windows for a moment before showing lock screen.
