When I reboot I get a fresh login screen for several seconds? before the reboot starts

I thought I'd add this in case there's a similarity between my
Kubuntu and the OP's Xubuntu. In Kubuntu, there's a setting in the
"Startup and Shutdown" section of its settings that offers these
options:

	When logging in:
		( ) Restore previous saved session
		( ) Restore manually saved session
		( ) Start with an empty session

The first option is selected by default and I always immediately go
into settings and change that to "Start with an empty session" after
installing Kubuntu to make sure that all boots are clean.

If a similar setting is available in Xubuntu, it might be worth a try
to see if that stops the behavior.
