gdm shows nothing apart of top bar (with clock) if I don't type any password for a long time

Description
I have just hit this problem again:
- Start my computer
- gdm shows users to login
- I click on my user -> password dialog is shown
- I press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and do some work as root in consoles (from tty1 to 3)
- After some minutes I go to F7 and see a broken gdm (only top bar is shown). I see the following in journalctl: jul 15 22:18:15 belkin4 gdm-password][656]: pam_unix(gdm-password:auth): conversation failed jul 15 22:18:15 belkin4 gdm-password][656]: pam_unix(gdm-password:auth): auth could not identify password for [pacho] jul 15 22:18:15 belkin4 gdm-password][656]: gkr-pam: no password is available for user jul 15 22:18:15 belkin4 gdm-password][656]: gkr-pam: no password is available for user
And I need to restart gdm to get it working again
Thanks!
