Also, a few comments for debugging:

0. I agree that this is a pretty nasty bug for usability on an LTS
release, it doesn't give a very professional feeling (which is too bad
as otherwise Ubuntu 22.04 is amazing).

1. Not all windows end up underneath the dock, only some (and I can't
identify a pattern).

2. I can't reliably reproduce the issue. On my setup it doesn't happen
every time I unlock the screen, and it seems to happen less frequently
in the first few unlocks after a full system restart. It gets worse
after a few hours/days of system usage.

3. I'm not sure, but I have the feeling this might be related to the
fact that I often switch between two displays (the laptop's one and an
external one, with same resolution 1920x1200). I always use a single
display but I use the laptop's one when I'm not at my desk. I have the
impression that if I always use the same display, the issue does arise.
(note that the issue does *not* come up only when I lock on one screen
and unlock on the other one)

4. Every time I unlock the screen, it looks like there's always some
flickering under the dock for the first few milliseconds. This seems to
happen even when the bug does not arise, but it does look suspicious.
Hypothesis: the position of the windows is reset every time after a
screen unlock, and sometimes it happens that some windows are "left
behind".

Title:
  Dock displaying over window after resuming from blank screen

Status in Dash to dock:

Status in Mutter:

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I have Blank Screen set to happen after 2 minutes of inactivity.

  When resuming from a Blank Screen (by moving the mouse or touching the
  keyboard), the Dock is displayed over the top of the current program.

  To get it back to normal I need to click "Restore Down" on the current
  programs window and then "Maximize" so that the Dock no longer
  overlaps it.

  (Note: I have Auto-hide dock turned off.)

  This only happens sometimes. I can't reproduce the bug it every time.

  -------------------------------------------------

  1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> 
About Ubuntu
  - Ubuntu 21.10

  2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' 
or by checking in Software Center
  - Not sure (I guess the Dock is part of the Gnome interface?)

  3) What you expected to happen
  - Dock should not overlap the current program on resume from screen blank.

  4) What happened instead
  - The Dock overlaps the current program on resume from screen blank.
