A way to fix this: $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver embedded-keyboard-command ''
For some reason, I had the following set: $ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.screensaver embedded-keyboard-command 'onboard -xid' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/942530 Title: on-screen keyboard always displays once enabled Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Whilst investigating bug 937611, I enabled the on-screen keyboard. However, I subsequently switched if off via "System Settings" -> "Universal Access" -> Typing tab -> "Typing Assistant". As expected, the keyboard no longer displays on the desktop but when the screen locks automatically or is locked manually, the on-screen keyboard is displayed again.
