As the title says, automatic login is not working. I've tried a few things, turning it off and on, changing the password, and restarting the system. I always get asked for a password on login however, and with a forced long password it gets abit annoying to have to type it in every time I need to log in.

Output of lsb_release -a

No LSB modules are avalible.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release: 22.04
Codename: jammy

EDIT: It seems that automatic login is configured correctly in accordance with GDM3, however it is simply refuseing to work.
