I had troubles with gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days. Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no ~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*). Just backup your current config and remove it from $HOME, or try to start GNOME with a dummy new user. Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading.
