If you want an overview over all sessions on the server, then run:
x2golistsessions_root
(as the name indicates, this requires a root account)

Are you seeing the suspended session as well as the running one in the session list?
Yes, I see the suspended and the running.

Yes, is the problem also present when you try to use the broker via SSH instead of HTTP?
I don't know, I've never been able to figure out how to use ssh. The documentation on that is sparse.
Did you run x2gobroker-keygen on the broker server?
Yes. Should I run it again?
Did you invoke x2go-pubkeyauthorizer with the proper parameters on all required machines? If so, you should have the same authorized_keys file in /var/lib/x2gobroker/.ssh/ on the three servers as well as on the broker.
Yes. Should I run it again? Again, the documentation is sparse, so what parameters would I use?
Have you added the users via
x2godbadmin --adduser USERNAME_GOES_HERE
Yes
