Hi Vincent,
out of curiosity, did you try to move the mouse (and bring it “back” to the
main screen) and see if the login dialog appears? My main setup also uses a
dual screen (docked laptop with an external screen), and I didn't (yet)
experienced the issue you describe, but both my screens have pretty similar
resolutions (laptop is 1920×1080, external screen is 1920×1200).
Also are both screens on and visible?
Regards,
