Public bug reported: I am using Ubuntu xenial 16.04.1 with gnome-flashback. I pick a desktop background image. I hide desktop icons with "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false" or using dconf-editor. The background image is still there but when I reboot, the background image is gone and the background turns black. I can reproduce the problem without rebooting just by trying to change the background image again, it just won't do it. If I show the desktop icons back again it will show the background image I just picked.
