Battery percentage screen stays on waking from sleep

Hi-

I have a fairly new 15" MacBook Pro which I bought as a refurb from Apple about a month ago. I have been having an annoying issue since the first day that I had the laptop. I have tried PRAM reset, SMC reset, and did a complete removal and reinstall (repartitioned and installed from scratch)

I use this laptop in the evenings after work, so it sits with the lid closed, sleeping all day. When I wake it from sleep I can use the fingerprint sensor to log in, and I can barely see my apps in the background, but the battery charged percentage screen either won't go away, or takes a minute (I have had to hard boot it several times, when the screen wouldn't go away after a few minutes).

This picture shows what I am talking about:

You can see the apps in the background - it is like whatever application that shows this screen is hung.

Any ideas? I have tried SSHing into it while it exhibited this issue, but didn't find anything.

Thanks
