I've seen this for a couple of days, Today's update, 2014-06-06 didn't help.
$ uname -a
Linux ws6 3.13.0-24-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 2 23:30:00 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
My experience:
1. On a dual display system with the sreensaver active, I move the mouse and the screensaver clears.
2. Whichever screen the mouse pointer is on gets the password dialog box.
3. I click in the dialog box, but typing doesn't enter bullets, I don't get the blinking text cursor in the dialog.
4. Sometimes after moving the mouse to the other screen I could enter my password. More often, I have to hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get tty1, which works, then then pkill X, losing any unsaved work. I suspect that I may just be impatient, but for now I've disabled locking.
