Sorry but I've been really busy with my work and haven't had much time
to follow up on this.

I checked and there is no 'ubuntu' account on my install.

I edited my /etc/gdm/custom.conf as follows and timed login worked as
expected.

AutomaticLoginEnable=false
AutomaticLogin=george
TimedLoginEnable=true
TimedLogin=george
TimedLoginDelay=10

Clearly the problem was caused by the fact that auto login was set up
for an account that did not exist.
