The only way to get back to the active session, is via manual VT switching (at which point you will find out the session was never locked either, however that is probably a different bug. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=:684459) I am filing this against gnome-shell as it handles the switch user screen, however it would also involve gdm and polkit to some level. Steps to Reproduce 1. Click 'Switch User' from User Menu 2. You will get to the login screen 3. Try to log back in with the same user, after entering password it silently fails and goes back to 2.
