  Steps:
  1. Have a multi-user system
  2. Start up and log in as a user
  3. Use the Use Menu to switch to another user
  4. You will be at the Unity Greeter, log in as the second user
  5. The second user session will load
  6. Choose Log Out from the power/setting menu
  7. You will be at the Unity Greeter
  8. select and enter the password for the logged in user
  
  Result:
  The screen turns black and shows a blinking cursor
  Manually switching to VT7 shows the first user session, and works fine
  
  Expected:
  Automatically returned to VT7 after entering the password for the first user
