Public bug reported: Super+l needs to be pressed twice to lock the screen. Pressing the shortcut only once results in strange behavior. Locking the screen in general is buggy (e.g. dock is visible when screen is locked, once screen is unlocked the dock disappears even after pressing activities). These issues were not present in 18.04. I am on a fresh install of 18.10 with gnome.

Pressing the shortcut once should lock the screen, no ui elements should remain on the locked screen, locking and unlocking the screen should not result in the dock disappearing. 4) The lock screen no longer works. It is possible to view and interact with ui elements after pressing the lock shortcut. It is possible to view the dock when the screen is locked.
