LightDM doesn't seem to use .desktop files

This is something I started to notice recently and wasn't happening before but it seemes like LightDM does not auto start programs which are specefied in .desktop files ( in /etc/xdg/autostart) as it doesn't seem to autostart pulse audio, anyone has an idea why that might happen?

Why would LightDM start anything? That would seem to be the job of the Desktop Environment/Window Manager.
