How did you create the users? You may need to put them into some groups in 
order for them to log in. We found we needed to add them like this:

  useradd -p $crypt -G guest,fuse,audio,video -s /bin/bash -m $user

or if they already exist, you can try modifying them like this:

  usermod -g $user -G $user,guest,fuse,audio,video $user

where $user is the user's name.

Cheers, Chris.
