I'm getting exactly the same problem with i3wm on debian-11.6 whilst using the flatpak nightly build, from the 30th of december iirc.

h.boetes@habocp1 ~ % loginctl                        
SESSION  UID USER     SEAT  TTY
     20 1102 h.boetes seat0 
      3 1102 h.boetes       pts/0

2 sessions listed.
h.boetes@habocp1 ~ % loginctl show-session -p Type 20
Type=x11
h.boetes@habocp1 ~ % loginctl show-session -p Type 3 
Type=tty
