I also have this same problem in Maverick. The recipe I used is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466504

I have even tried disabling password for this account from the users menu. I have tried disabling all accounts except one. No matter what, I still get a login dialog box. It is not the same dialog box as the main login dialog. I get 'username' with a blank box. I type it in then this goes away and comes back with 'password' and a blank box. Once I type it in, it all comes back. When I set the user to not require a password, I still get the first dialog box asking for username. then it goes directly to the desktop. This is a public account and I want the machine to suspend when not in use and come back when needed.

If I were to log in with my credentials, I would not want this behavior, but the one login is fine. I am pretty happy that I have been able to get WOL working and suspend almost working. If I can get this bug resolved, I am in business! Well, not just this bug. Also my sound card does not want to come back and I have to issue a "sudo alsa force-reload" in order to get sound back when I resume, but that is probably another bug. And I have a workaround for that one...
