Public bug reported:

Just upgraded to Xubuntu 14.10, had issues with fglrx (see
http://askubuntu.com/questions/552795/xubuntu-14-10-upgrade-issues-with-
fglrx), went back to radeon drivers. Now it looks to be OK, however
after locking the screen using xflock4 and unlocking, I get these three
processes using a lot of CPU (this is on 4-core Phenom II X4 N950):

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND

xfce4-volumed                                                                   
                           
 5036 usr       20   0  327328  10556   5760 S  31.5  0.3   0:13.38 xfsettingsd 
         

Additional information:

- Killing and restarting xfsettingsd and xfce4-volumed resolves the issue until 
next sleep cycle
- When running only xfce4-volumed, but not xfsettingsd, the issue does not 
appear
- This can be reproduced always. ATI Radeon Mobility HD 5650 video card
- The CPU usage does not seem to go down after a while
- If I got it correctly, it looks like some other processes are also going to 
high CPU usage after killing xfce4-volumed. I think I saw xfce4-xkb-plugin 
going to 95% CPU usage
- The issue happens before unlock, i.e. locking then pressing a key to get a 
login dialog, then switching to vty1 and doing a top yields the above

Not sure what else I should check / post that can be useful for
troubleshooting, let me know.
