Hi Ingo,

Can you file a bug at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+filebug with the
following information:
- The expected interaction that should occur (i.e. what happens on a text
terminal when the password needs changing)
- What does occur in Unity Greeter
- The LightDM log (/var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log). This will contain
information about the PAM conversation.

--Robert
