Fast user switching not working from wake screen
When I upgraded from my 9 year old MacBook Pro, I immediately fell in love with the Touch ID and the fast user switching option. It makes it so easy for my wife and I to switch between our accounts. I simply press the Touch ID button and like magic, it goes from my wife's account straight into my account. But it doesn't work after the computer falls asleep.
For example, if my wife was last logged in and the computer goes to sleep, If I wake the computer and press the Touch ID button, it doesn't prompt the account switch. It simply stays on her login screen. No matter how many times I press the button, it stays on her user login screen. Ultimately, I have to click on the "switch user" option bellow which basically defeats the purpose of the Touch ID fast account switching option. Yes, I know it's not difficult to do but it just seems like an unnecessary step.
Why does the fast account switching work when the computer is active but not from the wake screen?
Surely there isn't an added security risk from the wake screen. So why would they assume the same user is going to log in after the computer goes to sleep? I've scoured the internet to see if this is normal behavior but I can't find anything on this topic. Do I have a glitch or is this a oversight by apple or am I missing something?
