Can reproduce when entering a wrong password. The UI disappears inappropriately right after the message appears. Works as expected when swiping the wrong finger on my fingerprint reader.

Comment 4 David Edmundson 2023-11-09 13:52:03 UTC

The "account is locked after too many unsuccesful attemps" warning message is also currently broken.

Comment 5 Nate Graham 2023-12-01 06:09:14 UTC

This is fixed now, likely by some of David E's recent work on the screen locker!
