Now this is strange. I see in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log the entry
"Greeter sets language fr_FR", and it's not followed by any error
message. Still, as you say, Language is not set in
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer.

Furthermore, since Language isn't set in
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer, accountsservice should fall back
to the language in /etc/default/locale. So French (France) should be
pre-selected at login.

I wouldn't think that those warning messages in x-0-greeter.log are
related. (I have one of those warnings myself.)

OTOH I'm kind of lost. I tested with my own relatively clean Xubuntu
installation (it's Xubuntu you are using, right?), and it behaves as
expected in this respect.

You could of course try to manually edit
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer and add these lines:

Language=fr_FR
FormatsLocale=fr_FR.UTF-8

** Package changed: language-selector (Ubuntu) => accountsservice
(Ubuntu)

** Changed in: accountsservice (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New
