Thanks Juha I didn't notice there were two different options used for the session (user-session and autologin-session). Using autologin-session=XBMC works. I guess I didn't notice autologin-session because when you use autologin-user without autologin-user-timeout then the user-session gets used.
I'm happy this is fixed.
