Bug Description
After coming out of sleep mode, my keyboard cannot type to the password entry field. When I try to type to the password entry field, the computer sends my input to whatever window I had open before my computer went to sleep. This means that if I type my password and press enter, and the last window I had open was, say, a gchat, I will send my password to the person with whom I was talking.
It seems like this bug only occurs when I had a text entry field selected before putting my computer to sleep.
