I don't know if it is a common problem or not, but I know of at least
one other person who has encountered it, so...

A fair amount of the time using xscreensaver to lock the screen, I am
unable to unlock it.  It prompts for my password, waits a long time,
and then goes back to the locked state.  This happens maybe 50-75% of
the time I lock the screen, with no discernible pattern.  It also
happens both when I use my account password or a key specified in my X
resources.
