--- Comment #34 from Adriaan de Groot <adridg@freebsd.org> ---
- If I **reboot** and go to text and start Plasma, so the very very first
session
  (and sometimes a later session, I haven't got a good handle on this), it
  does change, here's my second session after a reboot:
    Session2:
        unix-user = '1001'
        realname = 'Adriaan de Groot'
        seat = 'Seat1'
        session-type = 'unspecified'
        session-class = 'user'
        session-state = 'active'
        active = TRUE
        x11-display = ':0'
        x11-display-device = '/dev/ttyv8'
        display-device = '/dev/ttyv1'
        remote-host-name = ''
        is-local = TRUE
        on-since = '2021-05-16T21:31:18.505346Z'
        login-session-id = ''
        XDG_RUNTIME_DIR = '/var/run/user/1001'
        VTNr = '9'
- Sometimes, from the text console like I just described, the session will be
  active, but a switch to text-mode sets it to not-active, and then switching
  back again to X11 doesn't do anything. It remains not-active. Like I said,
  I don't have a good handle on this.

Logging out, goting to root and running `service sddm onestart` to get SDDM:

- Log in from SDDM to a Plasma X11 session with the "regular"
  Plasma session selected, then the session is not marked active:
    Session5:
        unix-user = '1001'
        realname = 'Adriaan de Groot'
        seat = 'Seat3'
        session-type = 'unspecified'
        session-class = 'user'
        session-state = 'online'
        active = FALSE
        x11-display = ':0'
        x11-display-device = ''
        display-device = '/dev/ttyv0'
        remote-host-name = ''
        is-local = TRUE
        on-since = '2021-05-16T21:39:37.540427Z'
        login-session-id = ''
        XDG_RUNTIME_DIR = '/var/run/user/1001'
        VTNr = '1'
  switching to a text vt (ctrl-alt-F2) gives the same output from
ck-list-sessions,
  and switching back to X (alt-F9) still has the same. I find the
*display-device*
  line to be rather misleading: yes, I suppose root did start SDDM from there,
  but it's not where the session lives. Similarly, the VTNr is wrong (that ..
  seems familiar and may just be a SDDM bug) and x11-display-device isn't
  set at all.

So it may be more a display manager / SDDM-specific problem, than CK itself.
