Title:
Screen locking issue
Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have noticed that when I have Virtualbox running a Windows 8.1 VM.
When I walk away from my PC for 5 minutes and come back my monitor has
gone to standby which is normal, when I move the mouse instead of
getting a prompt to login again it goes straight to the desktop again.
Then after a minute or 2 of using the PC it will lock he PC and prompt
for password like it should have done when coming out of idle.
