Bug Description

I have laptop with secondary LCD monitor configured via nvidia-settings as TwinView.

When I boot to login screen, all seems ok. I have login field (password) on primary laptop LCD. Secondary monitor is black. There is blinking cursor in password input field, so I start to enter password... but... nothing is written.

As I found out, when mouse cursor is placed on secondary monitor, that password input field lost its focus (although there is still blinking cursor in field). Immediately after moving cursor to primary monitor, where the login screen is, focus is refreshed again and I can write password.

It's annoying.
