Does re-enabling animations avoid the bug? I am wondering if this is
related to bug 1866044.

Title:
Snap Store can't install or remove snaps on 20.04 (password prompt
issue?)
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After upgrading to 20.04 the older App store disappeared and the Snap Store
appeared.
However this version of the snap store can't seem to install or remove any
snaps.
This seems to be due to a broken step in the user password prompt pop up.
Because the password prompt does not come up the Snap Store does not have the
necessary permissions to add or remove snaps.
When I try this in the terminal I need to use sudo
> edu@Edu-laptop:~$ snap remove gitkraken
> error: access denied (try with sudo)
> edu@Edu-laptop:~$ sudo snap remove gitkraken
> [sudo] password for edu:
> gitkraken removed
> edu@Edu-laptop:~$
However as soon as I typed the password and pressed enter the screen flashed
and my Brave browser session was killed.
- This seems to be an issue with many instances when the user's password is
requested.
Asking for the user's password should not kill apps or the session.
This might be related to the screen lock issue (

Since this is related to user password management I'm flagging it as
security related, feel free to downgrade if no risk is present.
