Bug Description

At some point, I changed my Universal Access setting to Large Text via this menu:
System Settings > Universal Access > Large Text

Later, I changed it back to "small text" (meaning I turned large text off).

Despite this, many times I will login to Ubuntu, and everything will be in Large Text again, despite the fact that I've explicitly turned that off.

Thanks, that's likely Unity setting the hi-dpi factor on login

affects: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) → unity (Ubuntu)

Know of a good workaround to persist these settings, until the bug is fixed?
