I also confirm this bug with sddm 0.17.0-r1 Same issue here, downgrading to 0.15 also solved my problem. Created attachment 523832 [details, diff]
sddm-0.17.0-switchToGreeter.patch
The attached patch fixes the issue for me.
Without logind, sddm's SeatManager object was creating its only seat ("seat0") too early, so the DisplayManager would never know about it and the dbus object for it wasn't created. The patch defers seat initialization until the DisplayManager has been connected.
I tested the patch. It works for me. Thanks Alexander. One odd thing: I am not sure if it's related nor relevant, but after re-emerging sddm with the patch, restarting xdm (service xdm restart) was not enough: I had a black screen. But after rebooting the whole computer it worked OK. thanks Alexander, did you already submit your patch upstream?
