This is caused by forcibly shutting off and turning on the system. The settings that the buttons applet uses are in gconf which has a cache that needs to be flushed prior to shutdown. If the reboot or shutdown commands are used the gconf data will be properly stored and this error will not occur. What needs to happen is we need some GUI way to reboot and shutdown properly.

Yes, the issue only happened when shutdown then reboot system by power. But we should handle unexpected senarioes to shutdown system. E.g. No power of device.
Shall we provide GUI way to shutdown or reboot device?

Change importance to wishlist as the issue only happened on shutdown then reboot system by power unexpectedly.
