In newer versions of lightdm there is a guest-session option in the
config. Otherwise you should set your default session to the one you
prefer.

Title:
  LightDM doesn't use GNOME Shell as guest session after uninstall of
  Unity

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  LightDM doesn't automatically use GNOME Shell as guest session after
  uninstall of Unity. There is not even a graphical user interface for
  setting the default session.

  When a user removed Unity, but did not change any setting manually and
  tries to start a guest session, the user will see just a plain
  background image with no interface at all. Only Ctrl+Alt+Delete allows
  to logout.

  As a workaround you have to manually edit "/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf"
  and change "user-session=ubuntu" to "user-session=gnome-shell".
