Public bug reported:

If I start the computer, and choose a unity session, I can't switch
users.

When I try to use the menu to select a new user, the screen goes blank.
If I touch the mouse, it just shows the locked screen for the current
user.

By contrast, If I choose a gnome session to begin with, I can switch
users. However, if the new user starts a unity session, they also won't
be able to use the menu on the top right of unity, to switch back to the
other session.

I am using GDM and Quantal.
