Bug Description

Running the Xubuntu Post-install test on GNOME Boxes. This is on a fresh install, first boot.

1. Create a new user
2. Lock your session (xflock4)
3. Switch user (xfce4-screensaver)
4. Log in as the new user (lightdm-gtk-greeter)
5. Log out
6. Log back in as the original user
7. The screen goes black, and the original user is logged out

I've seen this a few times with 22.10, but thought it was a weird one-off issue. Repeating the test with a new session does not seem to reproduce the issue.
