Decrypt password dialog losing focus in latest kernel?

Hi folks,

My laptop (ThinkPad T420) is set up to use encrypted lvm, so when I
start it up I am prompted to enter my encryption passphrase.

I've noticed, though, that with an external monitor connected via
DisplayPort and using the latest kernel (3.2.6-3.fc16.x86_64), the
password field doesn't have focus, so I cannot enter my drive encryption
password and unlock the volume.

This only happens with a second display connected.  When I run using
just my laptop's primary display, this issue doesn't occur.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I haven't found anything on bugzilla.redhat.com about this yet...

Thanks,
Steve
