This is because LightDM assigns each seat a different virtual terminal, and switches to that virtual terminal whenever X is (re)started.

I have some changes to LightDM in progress to add more complete multiseat support. If you are using Ubuntu, please try installing the version of LightDM in my PPA (<https://launchpad.net/~a7x/+archive/multiseat>):

    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:a7x/multiseat
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade

More complete instructions can be found by visiting the PPA page.
