[LightDM] how is start-default-seat supposed to work?

Why do you want to do this?  The solution will be different depending
on whether you only want one seat forever, or whether you want to
retain the ability to start the other seat as needed.

I guess start-default-seat is to handle the default configuration where
no specific seat is configured, but you still want to bring up seat0.

Did you fix the problem from your other thread that was preventing X
from starting as seat-1 due to the lack of a suitable display device?
Possibly that is why it did not work.
