Title:
  screensaver and screen locking not activating if keyring dialogue is
  open

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xscreensaver

  If password input dialogue, such as gnome keyring prompt or gksu is open, 
then screensaver will not automatically start if desktop is left idle for the 
pre-configured amount of time. This makes security of automatic screen locking 
inefficient in certain cases.  Upon password entry or dialog cancellation, 
screensaver starts. 
  How to reproduce:
  1) Configure xscreensaver with a delay of 1 minute
  2) open an application asking for keyring passphrase entry or gksu dialog
  3) Wait for one minute, screensaver does not kick in
  4) Enter passphrase/password or cancel dialog, screensaver starts.
