I don't think this is Mate-specific. I'm seeing it with regular Gnome
desktop.
This issue discusses the same problem.
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-screensaver/issues/221
The seat name, which should be "seat0" is "seat0allow-timed-login"
I have spent a couple of hours trawling through source code (online),
but haven't reached a conclusion.
I recorded this information when the problem occurs.
