I don't believe that this is directly related to either gdm or CentOS 7: 
we have the same problem, using kdm and CentOS 6.6. We have over 200 
systems and the problem happens on only about 10% of them, but of all of 
the machines on which it does happen, the machine is used as a workstation 
(the rest being headless compute servers). I can't see anything obvious 
that would explain the difference.
