Problems with lightdm login after xfce4-screensaver

Hello,

Most of the time, when my xfce4-screensaver activates and I deactivate it by touching my touchpad or pressing a key, the prompt for entering my password on lightdm is greyed out and would have to kill xinit by doing Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to return to tty1 console prompt.

I've attached dmesg output, Xorg.0 and Xorg.1 log files, and any X-session messages. I'm using runit as my init system. My kernel version:

Code: [Select]
$ uname -r
6.3.6-zen1-1-zen

and here are the version of lightdm and lightdm-gtk-greeter:

Code: [Select]
$ sudo pacman -Q lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter
lightdm 1:1.32.0-4
lightdm-gtk-greeter 1:2.0.8-3

Let me know if you need any other information.

It seems another person had a similar problem, in particular the user atomy:

atomy was saying that one of the screensavers needed to be disabled but I am not sure if this is the solution or not.
