I have the same problem on:

  Linux mythtv 3.8.0-31-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 10 20:03:44 UTC 2013 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  Ubuntu 13.04
  xfce

Fully up to date with patches.
Doesn't happen on every boot, but more than half of the time it does.
Since it runs mythtv and is our primary TV interface, the WAF is pretty low.
esp when it wont login and I'm not home.

>From a comment above - I've added an rm -f /home/paul/.Xauthority to 
>/etc/rc.local.
I sure hope that's not going to have any consequences.

Bug description:
  On 8/13/2012 I updated ubuntu 12.10.  Now when I try to log in the
  system flashes a black screen and then puts me back at the log in
  screen.  Logging in as guest works.  I tried adding a new user and
  cannot log in with that user either.

  I switched to gdm and logging in works fine.
