Public bug reported:
System is Kubuntu 18.10
After boot, sddm opens vt1 at seat0 and everything is fine. The Xorg
process is
root 3703 4.7 1.3 617952 110404 tty1 Ssl+ 09:45 0:17
/usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -nolisten tcp -auth /var/run/sddm/{f9a275af-f25c-
45b9-9975-2d69f76e6c24} -background none -noreset -displayfd 18 -seat
seat0 vt1
When starting a second session ("switch users") sddm fail to open a
second session, kills current session and restart with greeter. On
login, the second user takes vt1 at seat0.
narrowing syslog I have
journalctl -b -u sddm.service

Note: I'm chasing this bug since a clean install of Kubuntu 18.04, that
has been upgraded to 18.10 uniquely to try to fix the issue.
I am avialable to supply more information provided you give me guidance.
