The only thing I can think of is maybe the permissions on the graphics device (/dev/nvidia*) aren't allowing that user to access it, but it would be rare for that to affect only one user.
Otherwise, an environment variable or some sort of configuration in the user's home dir. I would first try temporarily moving the user's home dir to see if that helps, then try using their home dir but changing their default shell to see if maybe there's something in the .bashrc or .cshrc file that could be the problem.
