Firstly the gnome-shell mailing list might not be the best place to send
such messages. If the solution will not be find soon it is likely that
the message get lost in archives and be forgotten.

I would suspect that the problem is downstream/not in gnome-shell and
possibly should be reported on Debian bugzilla. If you think that
problem is upstream report it on Gnome bugzilla. In any case you are
more likely to receive support.

It also be good to get a stacktrace[1] of gnome-shell[2] and
gnome-settings-daemon as all that can be said is that it is not suppose
to happened.
