This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.20.0-0ubuntu3 --------------- lightdm (1.20.0-0ubuntu3) zesty; urgency=medium
* Add debian/patches/terminate-session.patch: Terminate leftover processes in greeter session. It can happen that the greeter session does not properly clean up itself on logout. This causes leaked processes like settings-daemon which act on the user session as they share the same $DISPLAY. Ask logind to terminate remaining processes in the greeter session on closing, which is more robust than trying to fix every greeter.

After 2409 revision randomly one of two seats does not work correctly. xsettings plugin from unity-settings-daemon or gnome-settings-deamon fails to start because there is already _XSESSION_S* manager running. After revision 2409 in system monitor I see that there is still running unity-settings-daemon started by lightdm. Reverting this revision fixes my problem.
