Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 3.4.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

sometimes there is no unlock dialog if the screen wake up again. One screen is deep blue and the other one is black with the gnome panel (normaly both are black with the gnome panel).
On the deep blue screen I can see the mouse cursor and it is possible to move it, but on the black screen it is invisible.
Press often ESC and "shake" the mouse show up the unlock dialog sometimes. It look like on the black screen the screensaver still work and does not wake up.

root at wheezy-desktop:~# ps ax | grep screen
 3426 ?        Sl     0:01 gnome-screensaver
 5206 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-screensaver/gnome-screensaver-dialog --status-message= --enable-switch

I'am not sure, but it look like this only happens after autolocking the screen (maybe the position of the mouse cursor affects as well).
I have at the moment four affected debian wheezy desktops with nvidia graphic.

Using LDAP and there are some other bugs with invalid user password, but I can not see the unlock password dailog!
