I've never tried what you are doing so I can't comment on what is causing your issue. On my HTPC, I have set Kodi to autostart in this way:

1. Press the Lubuntu icon
   
2. Select "Preferences" > "Default applications for LXSession"
   
3. In the opened window, select the option "Autostart"
   
4. Now you can enable or disable the autostarted applications, check/uncheck one in the listm or set manually on the field and pressing the "Add" button.

Hello,

same issue here. I don't want to use the Ubuntu GUI because I create my own install script solution.

So, what could be the reason of this issue?
