Public bug reported: I always disable desktop icons via Tweaks (or 'gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false'). Today, I turned on the computer and the icons were there - not only from the "~/Desktop" directory, but all of the icons from my home folder. The icons cannot be turned off. 'gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop- icons' returns 'false'.
Additionally, my shell (zsh, oh-my-zsh) starts very slow now and with each prompt (enter without a command entered), it takes about 2-3 seconds before the user> shows again. The icons "blink" during this as they're being refreshed. I am using Ubuntu 19.04, freshly installed a couple days ago.
