Login fails when preceded by incorrect password

WORKAROUND: After typing an incorrect password, click Cancel, then click your name, then enter your password again.


When on GDM, if you enter the password incorrectly and then enter the password correctly, the GDM GUI will disappear but you won't be logged into the session - you're left hanging on a purple screen with a cursor and have to hard shutdown.

LP_1766137_log_2

Unfortunately I don't have a device to SSH into the session from so I'm not sure how to get the unabbreviated logs?

The Ubuntu bug is here.

gnome-shell 3.28.1-0ubuntu1
gdm3 3.28.0-0ubuntu1

Ubuntu's Sebastien Bacher reckoned this should be filed against GNOME Shell rather than GDM.
