I can confirm this bug, when using the logout menu, or
fast-user-switch-applet, the screen isn't always locked. It does seem to
work if I use gdmflexiserver to switch instead.
Curiously, the locking seems to start working after a little while, at
least with fast-user-switch-applet.
I'm using gnome-screensaver.
