I can't reproduce this at all. You'd need to make it far more clear on how to set up the system in order to reproduce this issue. That may mean elaborating on this auto-login method you're using.

Here's how to reproduce the error.

Make the following files as such:
===.xinitrc:===
[[ -f ~/.Xresources ]] && xrdb -merge -I$HOME ~/.Xresources
exec startlxqt
===.bash_profile:===
#
# ~/.bash_profile
#
[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc
if [[ -z $DISPLAY ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
    exec startx -- vt1 &> /dev/null
fi
===getty===
sudo systemctl edit getty@tty1
add the following text:
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --skip-login --noissue -a vmc %I $TERM
===
To verify that getty is correct:
cat /<email address hidden>/override.conf

I couldn't reproduce this, but I'll say that this is not necessarily a supported methodology for Lubuntu. I mean I use awesomewm but I don't expect that Lubuntu ensures that it Just Works™ with it. Should you have a similar problem, my advice would be to test in Debian testing/experimental with the latest LXQt sources and if you find an issue, report it upstream.
