Public bug reported:

This is not the same bug as #1758512 - that bug is about an unresponsive
key combination, this bug is reproducible without pressing any key-
combination.

Reproduce:

Using Ubuntu 19.10. Manually modified /etc/systemd/logind.conf by
uncommenting this:

[Login]
NAutoVTs=6
ReserveVT=6

According to man logind.conf  this would result 6 virtual terminals
spawned.


Bug behaviour:

Reboot and run

$ sudo fgconsole --next-available
3

Expected:

  Given I've configured 6 auto virtual terminals this number should be
higher than 6.

Bug behaviour

Reboot and run:
$ sudo chvt 3

Got a screen with a black background and a single blinking cursor at
upper left corner

Expected:

  Seeing a login prompt
