Public bug reported:

Since 15.04 it is not possible to allow access control to a specific
user.

Tested with the current xubuntu 15.04 live iso file, it is the same problem.
$ md5sum xubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso 
586604cdb814f906f7c18345138f503b  xubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso

It can easily reproduced by adding another user:

sudo adduser user2

xhost +SI:localuser:user2
localuser:user2 being added to access control list

su user2

But it is sill not possible to start gui applications.

user2@xubuntu:~$ xclock
No protocol specified
Error: Can't open display: :0.0

user2@xubuntu:~$ /usr/bin/firefox
