I'll have a go. First, this is the trace requested by David based upon
his notes below:

4) Create a backtrace.
Explained in more detail here [2] or just the steps you need to follow, bellow.

4a) Get the GNU Debugger (backtrace program)
$ sudo apt-get install gdb

4b) Start the program under control of gdb and create the backtrace:

$ gdb gnome-settings-daemon --no-daemon --debug 2>&1 | tee gdb-gsd-debug.txt
(gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint
(gdb) set pagination 0
(gdb) run <arguments, if any>

If the program hangs but doesn't crash you can press ctrl+c in gdb while
the program is frozen.

>From the gdb prompt run the following commands:

(gdb) backtrace full
(gdb) info registers
(gdb) thread apply all backtrace
(gdb) quit

Please post all the files generated by these commands (gstreamer-
packages, gsd-error-log, backtrace) to Bug #358426.

Thank you,

David
