System completely locks up on single user root account with no password at lock screen

I know its generally not best practice to operate your OS without a password, but I ran into an interesting issue where if your password isn't set and you try to log in from the lock screen, the confirmation button does nothing. Clicking switch user then causes the system to hard freeze. KDE is being used for the environment.

This is not a supported configuration and goes against our own installation instructions.

Got it, I went in and added a password and the problem has resolved itself. I think its good I pointed this out though in case anyone else comes here asking about the same question.
