Bug Description
Anytime my screen gets blanked, it is also locked.
Every time it is locked and is blanked, I lose the session to a blank screen after login. I have found nothing that allows me to resume from this condition.
This occurs when the screen is blanked by any means and is also locked at the same time.
If I lock the screen manually and the screen is not blanked. I can log back in just fine.
If I turn off Light Locker and blank the screen. I can resume just fine.
If I turn off Light Locker and suspend. I can resume just fine.
If I manually lock the screen and close the lid on my laptop, it automatically instantly suspends and I am messed up.
If Light Locker is off and I close the lid it does not suspend. I have all of the Power settings to do nothing with the lid close.
If I set Light Locker - Blank screen - never, Switch off display - never, Lock on suspend - Off. Then I can close the lid without consequence, provide I did not lock the screen.
But, if I update, or something else I am not aware of, the Light Locker settings will change to something I have never set it at. And if I close the lid, unaware of these changes, I am messed up.
For me this means that Light Locker will remain turned off until this is fixed.

Did you close the laptop lid when suspending? We're seeing a bug in xfce4-power-manager that sounds very much like what you describe, but it only happens when the laptop is suspended by closing the lid.
Also: does normal/manual locking also not work for you?
