Hi all - I have the same issue with Precise 64 bit and the many
.goutputstream files, dating back to the day I setup my workstation with
Precise (clean install), and the lightdm discussion here rang a bell.

I have done some tweaking to lightdm, and I wonder if this is causging
the problem...???  Happens on ALL my Precise machines, all of which are
64 bit, all of which I've done the exact same lightdm tweaks.

First, my lightdm.conf file...

[SeatDefaults]
user-session=gnome-shell
greeter-session=unity-greeter
greeter-hide-users=true
allow-guest=false

Then I have done the following to set a custom wall paper for lightdm
(since hiding users in lightdm results in the default lightdm wallpaper
at the login screen).  I chose a wallpaper I wanted to use and just
named it lightdm.jpg

sudo xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
sudo su lightdm -s /bin/bash
gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter background 
'/usr/share/backgrounds/lightdm.jpg'

Now, I am not as technically minded as all you fine people, but I can
surf and find solutions for things I want to accomplish, although
granted, I do not unstand many of them as well as I should, but life and
Linux is a learning process... always some new challenge to figure out,
which is what makes Linux so enjoyable...

Anyway, hope my info helps, or at least makes a lightbulb go off for
someone else...!!!
