   My hunch is that there is some leak(s) in rygel (or deps) and the
memory usage grows when you run different tests so by the time the
said test is reached, there isn't any memory left and then weird
things happen.

   BTW, You seem to be having a very special use-case for rygel and
I'm afraid you'll have to dive a bit deeper into the rygel (source)
and gupnp as a hacker to be able to succeed in what you are trying to
accomplish. We'll try our best to help out of course but that might
not be enough.
