When unlocking the screen, about 20% of the time, I don't get taken back to my desktop environment as usual. Instead, some or all elements of the desktop are missing (usually the panel, and sometimes also window title bars or maybe entire windows) and the system is generally unresponsive to keystrokes or mouse clicks. However, if I re-lock the screen with my usual keyboard shortcut, and then immediately unlock it again, everything works as expected. I found other bug reports here concerning problems unlocking after waking the computer from sleep. However, in my case putting the computer to sleep is not necessary to trigger the bug. It's sufficient to simply lock the desktop, wait several minutes or hours without suspending the computer, and then unlock it again. Reproducibility: Sometimes Steps to reproduce: 1. Lock the screen. 2. Unlock the screen. Observed result: 3. The desktop is only partially displayed and is unresponsive to keystrokes and mouse clicks. Expected result: 3. The desktop should be restored with full visibility and functionality.

What GPU are you using? Does it also happen on Wayland?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > What GPU are you using? Does it also happen on Wayland? I'm using an onboard Intel HD Graphics 630. I haven't tested Wayland and am not sure if I could run it long enough to reproduce the bug. (Last I checked it had too many showstopping or dealbreaking bugs.)
Could you try again?
I'm trying now. The other bugs are as annoying as ever. I'll keep up with it for a while to see if I can reproduce the problem.
I used Wayland for about 10 days and didn't observe the bug. By contrast, I usually do see it once or twice a week when using X11. So I think we can assume for now that the problem occurs only with X11.
Thanks a lot for such exhaustive testing. Really appreciated.
