login: Auth not setting Session flash

Failed logins are not getting Auth's msg displayed. I've done this
before but I'm about out of ideas why this isn'tworking. Can someone
take a look at this and tell me what I'm missing?

AppController:

function beforeFilter()
{
$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email', 'password' => 'password');
$this->Auth->loginError = 'No matching user found.';
$this->Auth->autoRedirect = true;
$this->Auth->loginAction = array(
'controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'login'
);
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array(
'controller' => 'public_static',
'action' => 'display',
'home'
);
$this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array(
'controller' => 'public_static',
'action' => 'display',
'home'
);

if (!$this->Session->read('User'))
{
$this->Auth->authError = 'Please log in';
}

$admin = Configure::read('Routing.admin');

if (isset($this->params[$admin]) && $this->params[$admin])
{
$this->layout = 'admin';
}

if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax())
{
Configure::write('debug', 0);
$this->layout = 'ajax';
}
}

UsersController:

public function login() {}

layouts/plain.ctp:

<div id="content" class="Wide">
<?= $session->flash() ?>
<?= $content_for_layout ?>
</div>

Flash messages are working properly elsewhere. It's only these login
ones that are not displaying.
