Bug Description

Whenever I lock my screen and then want to unlock it, the keyboard focus is not in the password field. This is very annoying

Version: 0.11.0-ubuntu5 (vivid beta)

This is consistently still appearant in SDDM 0.13 (Xenial/Yakkety)

Thank you for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
This bug has already been reported upstream to the project itself, it been working on and focused.

https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/501 (sddm 0.12.0 does not focus the password field and the keyboard does nothing)

Once this bug has been fixed in the most current release of Ubuntu, it may need some further action beeing backported to previous releases of Ubuntu.

Please feel free to report any bugs you are encountering.

I have uploaded a fix to ppa:tsimonq2/sddm-fixes for Xenial, Yakkety, and Zesty. If this fixes it, then it can be uploaded to Zesty and we can follow the SRU process from there for Xenial and Yakkety.

This will get fixed once SDDM 0.14 is uploaded.
