I'm reopening this bug, it has been with me for ages, I decided to investigate it recently, I enabled apport but it didn't intercept any crash (I suspect so at least, since it didn't pop-up as it usually does). As noted above, the problem should be related to gnome-settings- daemon, last time I experienced the bug (5 min ago) the process wasn't running, and launching it again solved the problem (i.e., the theme got loaded).
May it be that gnome-settings-daemon crashes before apport gets started? How can I work around this? Thank you for the suggestions.
