Did you try the workaround? If this is completely a user policy make sure the users are in the OU you are applying to or don't have a block inheritance on whatever OU they are in. Mine was all gpo but I was setting part of it as a computer policy. Once I moved it to the correct OU, they all worked.. only had a handful that need the hotfix.

Kb 977944. Only a few of our pcs needed it. But I was using a GPO when I got the black wallpaper issue not an image.

I deployed Windows 7 image with 2012 OSD, theme is set to Windows 7 Basic - but all users on or off domain receive black wallpaper. Can be changed manually but I have many kiosk PCs that must get it automatically. Anyone else have this problem?
