Works for me.

How exactly you "login using sddm on tty2"? I do not see any way to select something like this in SDDM greeter. Which session? SDDM can start any available session (and some users even use it to start Hyprland).
the session and logging in again even on tty4.
I end up on tty3 as well.
In fact what I consider strange are two different things. The behavior with tty2, tty3 and tty4 is caused by my use of Wayland and is now fully explained.
The behavior on tty1 is still strange. It means I cannot login on such a console. It looks like the wrong process is started on such a console. A process that does give the right prompt to ask for a user name, but does not act upon it.
Around the time various DMs ceased to default to running on tty7, tty1 variously took on some characteristic(s) that differ from other ttys, sometimes including omission of *getty. I stopped suggesting use of Ctrl-Alt-F1 for any diagnostic purpose, except viewing the last boot messages, quite some years ago. Ctrl-Alt-F[4,5,6] are the more reliable.
These Ctrl-Alt-F[4,5,6] show the same behavior.
I found the culprit. In order to suppress a message in the file /var/log/ messages from a cron job, I found a solution to use a file /etc/pam.d/login with: auth optional pam_kwallet5.so session optional pam_kwallet5.so auto_start force-run However removing this file solved my problem. A new inspection revealed that it did not solve the message from the cron job either. That message is: cron[25668]: pam_kwallet5(crond:session): pam_kwallet5: not a graphical session, skipping. Use force_run parameter to ignore this. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf
