I think I know what is the problem.

When logging in the gnome-setting-manager with gdm's pid is still active. This makes users gnome-settings-manager fail to start. After some time gdm's one finally exits and users is left with gray theme.

The following in:

[mutex:/etc/gdm]% cat /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default

killall gnome-settings-daemon 1>>/tmp/log.1 2>>/tmp/log.2
killall -9 gnome-settings-daemon 1>>/tmp/log.1 2>>/tmp/log.2

has fixed my problem.
