Public bug reported:

On login, gnome-settings-daemon fails to start, with the message
"restarted too many times". Trying to run from the terminal turns it,
and only it, high-contrast (I assume I accidentally set that theme at
some point) until I end it manually, or it segfaults. Due to this, I
assume, the volume + and - keys have stopped working and the theme is
incorrect.

Running gnome-settings-daemon through gdb gets the following:

xrdb:  "*Label.background" on line 243 overrides entry on line 170
xrdb:  "*Text.background" on line 249 overrides entry on line 211
