Unfortunately Jon's package (libpam-thinkfinger version 0.3+r118-0ubuntu5~ppa1) does NOT fix the problem for me:

1. sudo -s
2. 5 second pause
3. "Password or swipe finger: "

now there are two alternatives:

4a. Type password, press Enter
5a. 5 second pause
6a. root shell

and:

4b. Swipe finger.
5b. root shell

The pause in step 2 always exists, and the pause in step 5a is also not fixed :(
