Thanks for the reply. Yes, I've set up both the facial and PIN.
"Once the Facial has 'recognized' it will no longer flash"
This is the part that isn't working for me. The screen shows "Welcome back, <my name>! Dismiss the lock screen to sign in." As you can see, the scanner flashes at me even after this message displays.
Interestingly enough, if I move my head off to the side, I lose the recognition and it goes back to saying "Looking for you..." I suppose the computer isn't actually unlocked at this point.
