Public bug reported:

My power management settings are set to lock screen when the lid is
closed. When this happens, the screensaver activates, but is not visible
(desktop can't be interacted with, typing password and pressing enter
unlocks it).

I'm running Xubuntu and have tried:

* xscreensaver instead of xfce4-screensaver
* slick-greeter instead of lightdm-gtk-greeter

Which made no difference. I'm now using sddm instead of lightdm and no
longer having this problem, so I believe the bug is in lightdm. This is
possible a duplicate of #1853709, but I'm unsure as that one is
specifically talking about suspend, mine is set to lock, not suspend.
