This appears to be due to LightDM trying to connect to these X servers
as 127.0.0.1:<displaynumber>. I think this means it's trying to use
TCP/IP and failing. Since X.Org changed to TCP/IP disabled by default
this stopped working. Solution is to just connect to :<displaynumber>.

Bug description:
  On Wily, updated daily:

  petter@odin:~$ ac policy lightdm
  lightdm:
    Installed: 1.16.6-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1.16.6-0ubuntu1

  petter@odin:~$ dm-tool add-nested-seat 
  Unable to add seat: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Failed to start seat

  I was hoping to get a nested X server with lightdm, but  the Xephyr
  windows briefly opens and then closes again. I have tried this on two
  different installations of Wily with the same results. If I try to
  start Xephyr manually and then start lightdm on it with 'dm-tool add-
  local-x-seat' then dm-tool fails with exactly the same error message
  as above.
