I'm not sure what specifically causes it, but the situation in the original post is true. In addition, when this does happen, generally I no longer have sound in the X session I'm trying to use, which makes this bug a little more important I think. I've been able to work around the issue by either restarting the X server, logging out one of the users, or pressing ctrl+alt+F10 which brings me to the login screen and for some reason stops it from looping (it displays the message saying that an invalid login occured once.) These aren't really acceptable workarounds though.
