will only come up on second seat once [loginctl multiseat]

[Christian Pernegger]

I've set up a second seat via loginctl --attach, resulting in the following udev rules:

TAG=="seat", ENV{ID_FOR_SEAT}=="drm-pci-0000_6e_00_0", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1"
TAG=="seat", ENV{ID_FOR_SEAT}=="input-pci-0000_6c_00_0-usb-0_11_1_0", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1"
TAG=="seat", ENV{ID_FOR_SEAT}=="sound-pci-0000_6e_00_1", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1"
TAG=="seat", ENV{ID_FOR_SEAT}=="usb-pci-0000_6e_00_3-usb-0_1", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1"

Because of #2033322, WaylandEnable=false is set in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf.

It works great--except it does so only once. I can login on seat1 just fine, except when I log out, the greeter doesn't come back up again, it just leaves me with a black screen.
Can be recovered from by restarting gdm (via ssh from another box or from seat0), but obviously that isn't ideal.

I've attached a pstree for the working case (no GUI logins, both greeters up) and the non-working post-logout one (no GUI logins, only seat0 hat a greeter up); please advise re. what logs to provide.

Workaround: apt install lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter.
Works OOTB for me, with the very big caveat that screen locking will be disabled (that requires gdm).
