How have you set up the X session for the users? Is it specified, e.g., in /etc/env.d/90xsession or in some user-specific configuration files that only the other one would have? Does anything exceptional appear in Xorg.log? (As you can notice, I'm just guessing and shooting in the dark here.) -- Arttu V.
