Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

When inactive, the screensaver locks the workstation.  When logging back
in, I enter my password.  This always returns "incorrect password".

Workaround: hit "Switch User" log in as that same user with the denied
password, revealing the session that was logged out of.

I changed the password: "sudo passwd".  No change in behavior.

The question: where is it drawing the password from if not from the same
place that the regular login derives it?  And how can I fix this
admittedly small but annoying problem?
