Bug Description
To produce:
1. Login to a gnome session [Session 1]
2. Switch users from the logout dialog
3. Login to another gnome session [Session 2]
4. Hibernate (or close laptop lid etc.)
5. Unhibernate
After unhibernating you will be presented with the X server for [Session 2] which will have a screensaver lock enabled. However if you switch to [Session 1] using ctrl-alt-F... this session will be unlocked.
This behaviour is consistent with what would happen if not hibernating, but it doesn't sound like the behaviour a user would be expecting.

Which version of Ubuntu do you use? Is there anything in .xsession-errors that might help to identify the bug?
