Bug Description
If you have a password overlay dialogue box present on your screen, for example, trying to mount an encrypted disk image from gnome-disks, or trying to unlock an ssh key, if the lock screen appears while the dialogue is in place, after unlocking the screen, you can still enter your password into the dialogue and the action still happens (mounting the disk image, unlocking the ssh key), but the dialogue box gets stuck and does not disappear.
Steps for reproducing:
1) In gnome-disks, make a small 10mb disk image, select ext4 and luks. Set a trivial password.
2) Attempt to mount the encrypted disk image
3) When the password unlock dialogue appears, lock your screen (super + L)
4) Wake the screen up, unlock computer
<note, password overlay dialogue covers lock screen password prompt>
5) Enter password into existing dialogue
6) The dialogue now cannot be dismissed.
