Description
**Steps**
1. Turn auto log in on
2. Reboot
3. Switch is again off while auto log in is enabled - /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
**Investigation**
- user.get_automatic_login (); returns false after reboot even while I was auto logged in
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the three steps in the issue and inspect the value returned by user.get_automatic_login() after reboot, comparing it with /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. Done means the Auto Log In switch reflects the actual enabled state after reboot; no test file or source path is named in the issue.
