Bug Description
My screen is unlocking without a password after being locked for an unknown time period, like a lunch break or overnight. It is not hibernating or suspending, just locked. If I lock it and immediately unlock it forces me to use password as it should, otherwise about 40% of the time it just unlocks to my full session as I left it before locking. I lock by physically clicking the lock icon in the top right of the screen. I've not tested by just walking away and waiting.

I meant lock icon in the top right, not left. (Is there no editing button here)
