Title:
  'Authentication Error' at lock-screen after release upgrade

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After a successful do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS to
  Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, if the screen locks before performing a reboot, I am
  presented with an 'Authentication Error' at the lock screen and cannot
  authenticate to unlock.

  Both SSH and TTY login is still working (we use SSSD and LDAP to
  authenticate users and this still functions after the upgrade). Only
  lock-screen authentication seems to be affected.

  Rebooting the machine seems to fix this, but means any open files will
  be forcefully closed without saving.
