I have not been able to attempt the steps that you've requested, Marc.
However, this bug is trivial to reproduce. I think that anybody with an
interest in fixing this bug should be able to troubleshoot it
themselves.
To reproduce:
1. Set the screensaver timeout to 1 minute
2. Manually lock the desktop with Ctrl-Alt-L or by clicking Lock Screen
3. Wait 70 seconds
4. Unlock the screen with your password.
5. Try to use your desktop. The screensaver reactivates. You must enter your
password again.
Thanks,
Justin

Title:
screensaver runs twice after timeout when manually activated
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
If I manually activate the screensaver ("Lock Screen") with the Ctrl-
Alt-L keyboard shortcut, the screensaver will activate AGAIN after the
normal timeout (5 minutes in my case). So when I return to my
computer, I enter my password, the screen is unlocked, then after a
second or two the screen locks again I am prompted to enter my
password again. After the second password entry, my screen is
unlocked.
I have verified that this does not occur when the screensaver is
allowed to activate automatically. It's only the Ctrl-Alt-L "Lock
Screen" action that causes the duplicate instance.
This is not a duplicate of bug #556255. That bug is purportedly fixed.
This is a new and separate issue.
