Also if you could answer the question in #108 this could help us a lot to further debug if necessary the PAM module.

And to add, I'm also using a finger print reader (fprintd) as an authentication before the password, but there are some interesting facts about it(before anyone jump and point fingers there):
It has a timeout of 10s, the wait for the password text area is ~1 min
If I suspend the laptop manually and wake it it uses the fingerprint reader normally.
If I close the lid and open it - the finger print reader authentication is not available and the bug occurs.
Conclusion:
Possibly the fprintd.so library is not loaded for some reason on lid open, or the PAM module encounters some problems, after which it falls back (somehow) to the unix password. Again if you answer #108 would be most appreciated.
