I had the same problem and i couldn't set the wallpapers even with keyboard. The wallpaper changes. I can see the new wallpaper at startup. But after startup, only background is visible. No wallpaper. I updated gnome-desktop-data and libgnome-desktop-2. Now I can select wallpaper with mouse. But has no effect.
