Public bug reported: Since the 18.04 xubuntu upgrade, the numlock key turns on when the login screen appears (such as after locking the screen). I have this turned off in the BIOS, and I do not ever want it turned on. This "automatic" behavior is unwanted and unexpected. I see that I can disable this, but I shouldn't have to.
Also, after numlock is turned on I have to press the numlock key twice to get it to turn off. Since I lock my computer every time I stand up from my desk this is a constant annoyance. This is not a feature, this is a bug.
