Bug Description

LightDM doesn't appear to check /usr/share/wayland-sessions for the session defined in ~/.dmrc. It always defaults to the first session after selecting another wayland session.

It does check /usr/share/wayland-sessions, do you have a /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log after a failed session selection?

I attached the log.from starting a sway session, ending it (with rv=0), and not seeing sway be selected as the default session again. Line 98 of the log seems to be suspicious.
