After Latest Update, Cannot Unlock After Timeout

After the latest update, the lock/unlock had changed and now makes it impossible to unlock.
Prior to today, after my computer would sit and turn the screens off it would lock the computer (or I would lock it manually). After I come back the screens would come back on, enter the password, hit enter, and be back at the desktop.

Now, when I come back and enter the password, I hit enter but instead of going to the desktop it hides the password field and shows an unlock button with a lock icon. When I press the unlock button, nothing happens. I have to force restart to get back to the desktop.

I'd check the screen locking settings and SDDM settings.

Could it be this bug?
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=455712
Or even more this one, since you're multi monitor
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=456210

Possibly the first, though it started after 5.25.3, not earlier.

I don't get any error messages like the second bug.

They are the same as they were, no changes.

I believe it's a combination of the first bug you listed and this one: 456639 – "Unlock" button on lockscreen after entering correct password which was reported specifically on 5.25.3 and has been fixed for 5.25.4.
