I think that your problem is completely unrelated to the xfreerdp
script. It might be a problem with your X crashing, or a problem in
/usr/share/ltsp/xinitrc.d/I00-xauth.

Can you try with only the following in your lts.conf?
[Default]
SCREEN_07=xterm

Title:
  FreeRDP does not play well with xinit

Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Both FreeRDP and xinit make use of the "--" object.  With FreeRDP it
  comes before the IP address.  With xinit it comes before the "X"
  options.

  Imagine the following scenario for a FreeRDP thin client:

  xfreerdp -a 16 -u '' -x m -z --disable-wallpaper --disable-full-
  window-drag --disable-menu-animations --disable-theming --plugin
  rdpsnd --plugin rdpdr --data disk:Devices:/media/root -- 10.0.0.197

  If you were to enter the above line into a "SCREEN_XX" line, it would
  cause that screen not to load...  Not a good thing.

  == What happens: ==

  Any screen lines containing a "--" (now common with FreeRDP's CLI
  syntax) causes the respective screen not to load.

  == What SHOULD happen: ==

  The screen.d script for xfreerdp should have some way of accounting
  for "--" appearing within a given command and continue to function
  with it.

  Since FreeRDP is the new default RDP client for Ubuntu's LTSP
  implementation, this needs to be corrected.
