Pretty simple & not unknown.
Test case:
Optimus laptop
14.04.5 install or 14.04.x upgraded to lts-xenial HWE stack
Install nvidia drivers, reboot
Upon reboot the greeter screen will be blank though the bell will be heard.
Wait 300+ sec. for idle time out, then wake machine up
At that point the display is enabled & will be such for the life of the login session.
Solutions:
1. patch ubuntu-drivers-common to use modesetting for intel (very poor choice I'd think
2. reduce the idle time out in unity-greeter.gschema.xml to 3-4 secs. ( another poor choice but could inadvertently help out.
3. fix this issue ( likely not possible
4. pre-warn users/upgraders in a 14.04.5 release/upgrade note
5. provide a patched lts ubuntu-drivers-common only for 14.04.5
