Update to #37 and #38 reporting the issue on 16.04 LTS: The issue went away as silently as it initially came. Ran another apt update/upgrade today, totally different packages updated and then rebooted. 'Authentication Failure' in the lock screen is now gone, even after several reboots.
For completeness here are the packages that updated, I don't see a comonality here.:
