      Description

      The current language is not correctly set for the user, some SESSION variables are not unset after a new user session is created.

      This makes Moodle thinks that the user default language is the browser one, making the multi-lang filters to return always the text filtered by the browser language.

      This is happening only when the auto-detect language settings is on.
