It isn't very clear what the source is but the following line is not present in the successful session and sounds related to autologin.

I had the same issue but for Plasma 6

# Login SDDM
  services.displayManager = {
    sddm.enable = true;
    autoLogin.enable = true;
    autoLogin.user = "myname";
  };

wasnt logging me into the session. It seems so that your hack with:

systemd.services."getty@tty1".enable = false;
systemd.services."autovt@tty1".enable = false;

seems to work for Plasma 6 setups aswell.

@jtojnar maybe update the title and tags because this is out of scope of GNOME
