Bug Description

When Screen Lock is activated, the screen won't go blank (using virtual box) when an application asks for a user interference (promt). It is possible to make an input action, like clicking on an window button of the promting program, before password promt appears.

the bug only affects gnome 3 for all I can say, since I cannot reproduce it using gnome 2 (classic) or Unity
