Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in, unlock the users panel and add a second user.
2. Log out.
3. Select the new user, click the cog and make sure the Ubuntu session is selected.
4. Log in.
5. Notice that you don't have the launcher etc. $DESKTOP_SESSION and $XDG_SESSION_
Steps to resolve:
Rebooting the machine and trying again seemed to fix this problem.
At the greeter you can see that the GNOME session is selected, and then selecting Ubuntu now works.

Confirmed in a fresh install in a vm upgrades to current artful-updates and rebooted after upgrade before trying to log in and adding the new user etc
