@Pat that timer is the first thing I thought of when I saw this bug. I looked into it a bit, and found that the timer is synchronized with the animation timer. This means it has 16 ms resolution. This shouldn't matter as the only purpose of the timer is to ensure that the greeter is shown after the current event is processed. That said, I think we should log when/if the timer is triggering. Since I still can't reproduce this, I was hoping you could run an instrumented version of Unity8. If you are able to, would you prefer a patch (just qml/init changes, so you shouldn't have to recompile anything) or a deb?

This is intermittent but once in this state it is very consistently behaving this way. Update: while that was originally true now (build 136) it seems to clear once the button is pressed, the greeter is shown next resume.
