Public bug reported:

This is related to bug 838555.  After running the following:

dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.Accounts
/org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1000
org.freedesktop.Accounts.User.SetPasswordMode int32:1

You can log into a VT and see the prompts to set the new password.  But
try it in unity-greeter and you get an authentication error.

This is because lightdm never sets the PAM_TTY pam item.  Pam bails
because there is no TTY to ask.

Branch coming.
