Likely none. I probably misdiagnosed the issue initially. When I say write the user preferences what I mean is that the preferences I initially establish for my app do not get ultimately persisted by the defaults system.

As I said the issue only appears for a signed archive build for non admin users. For admin users and debug builds for non admin users everything is fine.
