It sounds like you have auto-login enabled, in which case it is perhaps 
not clear the distinction between boot up and login.

Can I suggest you try disabling auto-login, and then restart your 
machine. Then it should be clear if the issue is in boot up (before the 
login screen) or in your session (after the login screen).
