You don't have to copy the XML generated by shotwell to gnome-
background-properties. You have to create a different XML (I named it
wallpaper.xml) with this code that points to the XML from shotwell:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE wallpapers SYSTEM "gnome-wp-list.dtd">
<wallpapers>
        <wallpaper deleted="false">
                <name>Shotwell</name>
                
<filename>/home/<user>/.local/share/shotwell/wallpaper/wallpaper.xml</filename>
                <options>zoom</options>
        </wallpaper>
</wallpapers>

Now, if you go to the wallpapers settings you will se your slideshow
there

Title:
  After "apt upgrade" around Mar 18, shotwell desktop slideshow does not
  work any more

Status in shotwell package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I had ubuntu 22.04, which was upgraded from 21.10 following the link:
  https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-to-22-04-lts-jammy-
  jellyfish. It has worked well for me until I run "apt update and apt
  upgrade" around Mar 18. I have wallpaper slideshow setup using
  shotwell before the upgrade. I noticed my desktop background went to
  black after the upgrade. I then logged out and logged in. The
  background was changed to an Ubuntu default. I tried to set desktop
  slideshow again using shotwell but it never worked any more. From the
  GUI, I did not see anything abnormal. But the desktop background
  simply did not change at all.

  I guess something was broken by one of the upgraded packages.
