Rygel does not autostart in Ubuntu 12.10.
As originally posted, it is rather interesting that rygel.desktop is the only file in /usr/share/autostart/ whereas all the other .desktop files are in /etc/xdg/autostart/. I don't use KDE.
If I add the symbolic link
ln -s /usr/share/autostart/rygel.desktop /etc/xdg/autostart
then rygel does autostart on login.
