If I log into Unity, immediately log out, then log into Ubuntu, it logs in without issue. If I don't log into Unity first, the login attempt to Ubuntu briefly shows a black screen, then returns immediately to the login prompt. From suspend or hibernate, I can continue using the Wayland session without issue through poweroff. If I reboot or shutdown, the first login needs to be Unity, then I can log out and back to the Ubuntu session normally. Attached is some output from syslog showing gnome-session related errors. I'm not sure if they show the specific error, but they do appear at the time a first Ubuntu login is attempted.
