Bug Description

This is not consistent, when switching between two user sessions (one unity8 snap on classic and one unity7) I sometimes get presented with the unity8 lock screen that only provides the current session as an option.

I could only reproduce it one way, by choosing switch user from the unity7 session. With this fix that path behaves properly.
I could not reproduce the other instance I'd seen where switching out of unity8 by selecting my unity7 account went to the lock screen, will keep watching.
