ubuntu on wayland logs out user when screen locks

[richard]

WHen using
 - Ubuntu on Wayland
 - dash to panel
 - arc menu
 - firefox (with Gnome extension, Grammarly)

when I leave the computer idle and the screen locks, mostly when returning to the computer the user is logged out and a new session is created through a selection of user and password entry, rather than continuing the session.

This is most unproductive
I allowed the system to report this with the automatic reporting tool, and this has been occurring for over a month.
