something is turning on fingerprint reader and leaving it on

[Neal Becker]

Every since a recent update (f23), something is turning on my fingerprint 
reader on my lenovo x1 carbon, when it's time to enter a password.  But 
unlike previously, where the reader would simply timeout and stop blinking 
(I never actually use it), now it's just left on forever.

I have a T440s and mine doesn't do that, it still blinks then times out.
Not that helps you out much.

What's weird is the reader turns on *after* I unlock the screen.  This is on 
kde.
