Requested logs.
The failed first authentication is on Apr 21 11:05:28, immediatly after the second attempt succeeds.
Before I logged in with the domain account I checked that networking of the machine worked:
wbinfo -P and wbinfo -p both showed online, wbinfo -u displayed every user.
The DC is a Ubuntu 16.04 samba active directory. In a similar setup
where I have the same problem I use a "18.04" ubuntu samba dc, but lets
stay with this machine since I can reproduce the problem very reliably
and the machine reboots quickly.
/etc/nsswitch has the following setup:
passwd: compat winbind systemd
group: compat winbind systemd
shadow: compat
gshadow: files
hosts: files resolve dns mdns_minimal
networks: files
protocols: db files
services: db files
ethers: db files
rpc: db files
netgroup: nis

Title:
winbind returns PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL on first login after reboot
Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
The following issue exists only on Ubuntu 18.04
I've upgraded ubuntu from 17.10 and noticed that winbind does not work well.
90% of the time I reboot my system I'm getting PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL when trying to log in with a domain account.
clicking login again on the login screen most of the time succeeds (so the password is correct)
I've checked if it works if I wait 10 minutes before logging in, no success, so it is not a timing issue.
Also I've checked if winbind is working (log in with ssh using a local account)
getent passwd xy and wbinfo -K user%pwd both work always.
Now my workaround is putting
winbind request timeout = 3
in smb.conf, since the PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL is returned about 60sec after trying to login. This workaround solves nothing, it only makes logging in faster. (But now it fails mostly two times, but waiting 6 seconds is better than 60)
To me it seems like deadlock, but I was unable to track it since it
happens only on the first login. Then I would have to reboot
(restarting winbind does not trigger it twice, also removing all
caches in /run/samba does not trigger it twice)
