pmow, you could give them the below script first, which does the VT-switching automatically. It's worked fine for me for quite some time.

Save your work first (since the final command will log you out), then run this in a terminal:

sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin

echo '#!/bin/sh
n="$(fgconsole)" || exit 1
case "$n" in
[0-9]) /bin/chvt 1; /bin/chvt “$n”;sleep 1;;
*) echo "error from $0; fgconsole gave $n" >/tmp/VTswitch.log
esac
' | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/VTswitch

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/VTswitch

sudo mkdir -p /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d

echo '[Seat:*]
session-cleanup-script=/usr/local/bin/VTswitch
' | sudo tee /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-vtswitch.conf

sudo systemctl restart lightdm
