What is this PAM? What happens when you try to lock the screen the default way?

In the past screensaver-command -lock would create a blank screen that would remain blank until spacebar etc. is struck and the lock dialog box appears. Now, the lock dialog box is stuck in a viscous circle with PAM. The lock dialog box always stays "awake" and on-screen until it times out. Then PAM takes over, box appears, ad infinitum. The screen never returns to a state when the screen remains black until a key is struck. Having the lock dialog box and PAM chase each other is distracting. How do I get back to a previous stage where the lock dialog box only appears when a key is struck? Am I going the wrong way with my use of xscreensaver-command? I'm running Aardvark pre-alpha. If this is an early bug, I deserve running an ultra-unstable version of ubuntu.
