Bug Description
I have the above described problem, which seems to be very similar to bug #1716160
- laptop is in docking station and 2 monitors are connected (HDMI, DVI)
- If the lid is closed and I boot the laptop I can input my credentials in the login screen and after hitting ENTER the laptop goes to sleep
- If I then press the power button of the docking station the laptop wakes up and goes straight to the ubuntu environment w/o any user identification
The device is a Lenovo T420 with classic docking station. Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS. Internal graphics Intel integrated grafics and dedicated Nvidia Quadro NVS 4200M with propriety driver 390.116. Behavior independent of the graphics used.
I do not know what to do now since the latest state of bug #1716160 is "fix released" and so I guess it should be part of the ubuntu version I use?
Thank you very much.

I think the problem here is that gnome-shell detects the lid is closed already and treats that like you just closed the lid immediately on login.
I have heard about this kind of problem before and am not sure if it's already been fixed in later versions.
