Thank you for your bug report. Do you use unity? Is that the new session lock screen? Did you have a password prompt opened behind the lock screen (could be bug #1305586)? Does it happen every time or only once?

Note that as a workaround you can use the top left menu -> switch user then log back from the greeter

Yes, I am use Unity. I have autologon on boot (for ) and during work several times per day I lock my computer or it's locked after idle time. This issue happens several times per day, so now I just turn off autolock on idle and dont lock my computer manually.
I'm often use 2xclient and remmina for work with remote computers via rdp and vnc, so may be it's like a bug 1305586.
On top left I see only name of my computer (see attachment). Buttons on top right dont clickable. I have not possible to choose guest session.
