Hi, I am seeing similar issue, which can be reproduced by steps below:

1. Open the terminal, type the below command in the shell prompt:

gksu ls /

2. GUI password prompt will appear, now press “Caps Lock” button.
3. Message will appear “You have capslock on”.
4. Press “Caps Lock” button again, this message is not going away, but triangle 
symbol shows correct state.
Is it possible to just remove that message? Triangle symbol should be 
sufficient.

Title:
  "You have caps lock on" stays on when caps lock is changed

Status in gksu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1.  I turn caps lock on.
  2. I run a program that uses gksudo to prompt me for my password. 
  3. It gives me the password prompt, including the phrase "You have caps lock 
on".
  4. Another program (Steam) steals my keyboard focus from the password prompt.
  5. I turn caps lock off while the keyboard focus is not within the password 
prompt.
  6.  I put my keyboard focus back into the password prompt.

  Now the "You have caps lock on" message is still there, while I don't
  have caps lock on.  Presumably the window polls for caps lock to be
  turned off.  It should also at least poll for when the window goes in
  focus again, and test caps lock again when focus is regained.

  Ubuntu Karmic alpha 3 with all updates applied.

  [Please modify the package choice if I got it wrong.]
