I get something similar on my 13.10 install upgraded from 13.04, except no user interaction is required on my part; the window just suddenly closes while loading wallpapers. (See Bug 1241927 .)

the bug is years old without activity nor new report and the code changed quite a lot since, closing, feel free to register new bugs if you have issues in newer versions though
