Default [Q] Lock Screen freezing?

Is anyone else having issues with the tablet seizing up on the lockscreen?

I have the tab from I/O running 3.1 rooted. Occasionally when waking the tab from sleep the screen is completely unresponsive. Sometimes pressing the power button a few times or rotating will work but a lot of the time I have to hold the power button down and do a power cycle.

Has anyone else run in to this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it?

I've had the same issue twice today. I was in Google Maps and then it wouldn't do anything. I had to hold the power button to have it restart. Then a few minutes latter the screen wouldn't respond to anything. I have the Google I/O Tab.

I used to have that issue with stock ROM a few times in the past. The way I found to 'fix' it was to press the power button then wait 5-10s without touching screen, then trying to unlock it. I hope it works for you.
