Public bug reported: Just testing Ubuntu GNOME Wily 20150822 i386 and I've noticed that in spite of selecting auto-login = on during installation when the installation is complete and after first boot opening Settings > Users the UI shows off, but auto-login is working properly and if you toggle the UI back and forth from off to on a couple of times it seems to start working properly.
I also installed Ubuntu 20150822 i386 and it's not affected so I suspect this is either a bug in gdm or possibly in g-c-c or g-s-d.
