random picks from past errors of my experience, is your 
gschemas.compiled accessible?

13:44:04 root[load: 2.45]@kornflake ~# ls -l 
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4.1K dets  21 00:07 
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled


13:44:51 root[load: 2.32]@kornflake xdg/autostart# grep Exec 
/etc/xdg/autostart/gsettings-data-convert.desktop
Exec=gsettings-data-convert

what does "gsettings-data-convert" tell if you execute it as user?
