This has happened on and off for years. I'm on the latest OSX on a Mac Pro tower system, but it happens on all my sytems occasionally. The screen saver is set to require a password to get back in, which works *most* of the time. Sometimes, though (like just now) I get back to my computer and it has a black screen and it just beeps when I type. All keys, except modifiers like Shift. Control-C beeps. Return beeps. F13 beeps. 'S' beeps. All of them.
The only way out of this has been to force a restart, which is not good. I have tried briefly pressing Power which can get the computer to go to sleep, but the same thing happens when I wake it back up.
I have never been able to find an explanation to this, online or otherwise. It's a bad bug, it seems.
