I put the nvidia driver back (version 173.14.20; the card is a GeForce
FX 5500).  Right away on the first restart, I was required to log in.
In six restarts since putting the driver back, three have gone through
automatically; the other three required me to log in.

If I set TimedLoginEnable=true, the timer countdown (with a clock
animation) shows OK onscreen, then sometimes the bug occurs anyway: the
countdown finishes and the login dialog goes away so I see just the
background with "Xubuntu" and a swarming electrons animation, then the
screen goes black for a second, then that background with swarming
lights comes back, then the login dialog comes back and requires login.

I cannot say conclusively, maybe TimedLogin does not matter at all, but
it seems like maybe the bug may is more likely to occur when
TimedLoginEnable=false, or when TimedLoginDelay is set to a low number
like 5.
