Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in
  g_main_context_dispatch()

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  THIS IS NOT A DUPLICATE OF THE OTHER ISSUES WITH SIMILAR TITLES.
  READ MY REPORT BEFORE YOU MARK IT AS A DUPLICATE. 

  Just after login, apport poped-up to say that gnome-settings-daemon
  crashed, but it appears to be running just fine.

  My theme is presently working; all the icons and buttons look right;
  all the colors are correct.

  It is possible that apport is reporting a crash that happened at the
  previous shutdown.

  It may be that apport misinterpreted the termination of gnome-
  settings-daemon as a crash.

  I was able to observe the theme breaking and returning to gnome
  defaults for just a moment at the previous shutdown.

  I am not able to reproduce this reliably, but have observed the same
  phenomenon before.

  Steps to (occasionally) reproduce:

  1. Turn PC on (assuming apport is enabled)
  2. Log in to Ubuntu (presumably using a gnome-session)
  3. Shut down / Reboot
  4. See the desktop theme disappear slightly before plymouth and final ACPI event (occasionally)
  5. Turn PC on / Wait for reboot
  6. Log in to Ubuntu again
  7. Receive notice from apport.
