Same problem here.

Clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 (The full release version, with all
updates applied as of 12 October 2010.

Installed nvidia drivers, after a reboot the ubuntu theme has gone and
is replaced by the default gnome theme (which is quite ugly).

It is possible to get it working if you run this:
-----
killall gnome-settings-daemon
gnome-settings-daemon
-----
Then log out, and log back in again.  Then the theme works nicely, until you 
reboot / log out again.

Note that sometimes I've noticed several gnome-settings-daemon processes
running at 100% CPU usage - these can be killed with no effect to your
present theme for the current session.

Also note that when I run gnome-settings-daemon (after running killall 
gnome-settings-daemon) this is returned to the console:
-----
rhub...@rhubarb-sx58:~$ gnome-settings-daemon 

** (gnome-settings-daemon:4716): WARNING **: Failed to acquire
org.gnome.SettingsDaemon

** (gnome-settings-daemon:4716): WARNING **: Could not acquire name
-----

Which makes me think it's a problem to do with the gnome-settings-daemon
;)
