The quirk is more nuanced than I reported above.

This reports groups correctly:

1. GUI login
2. Switch to TTY, login
3. "groups"
4. Switch to GUI
5. Launch Terminal
6. "groups"

This only reports the username:

1. GUI Login
2. Launch Terminal
3. "groups"
4. Switch to TTY, login
5. "groups"

Tests done with /usr/bin/tmux as the user's shell and tmux default-shell
= /bin/bash which has been my standard configuration for several years
now with no problems.
