Additional details: The Num Lock status light on the keyboard is flashed continuously while the daemon is thrashing the disk as a result of this bug, at a rate of over 50 flashes per second.

When my computer is not on the lock screen, I sometimes press Num Lock to dim the light because it is particularly bright on this keyboard, and it may flash once then return to its old status. This means that it probably fires twice in quick succession, both outside and inside the lock screen.
