Description username981618 2024-07-05 11:17:15 UTC 
SUMMARY
After locking the screen with Ctrl+L, I am unable to unlock the lockscreen. It shows my username with an "unlock" button, but clicking it doesn't do anything. No password prompt anywhere and the fingerprint unlock also doesn't work. I have uploaded a video: https://files.catbox.moe/5rbr88.mp4

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Lock screen e.g. with Ctrl+L

OBSERVED RESULT
1. Lockscreen shows an "Unlock" button that doesn't do anything. No way to unlock. Need to force shutdown the computer.

Video of the experience here: https://files.catbox.moe/5rbr88.mp4

EXPECTED RESULT
1. Moving mouse or clicking on unlock would reveal the password prompt to unlock

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
