Bug Description
Binary package hint: fast-user-
This bug is intermittent, seems that it might be related to when networking in enabled in network manager. This is not confirmed.
To reproduce:
Chhose switch user and then try to login as the user who is already logged in enter password. See if desktop displays. One time out of 10 you will get a blank screen no windows/desktop. However the system is still running because if i do alt+f2 and type orca i can angivate the system blind.
Expected:
To return to my desktop as before.

This is something that was identified in the Birmingham Global Jam... Personally, I can't get this issue myself, however, I've seen it happening on multiple other machines we have here...
Attaching info to this from my machine, to hopefully help show differences.
