This is not actually xsplash. That's the desktop background being drawn by gnome-settings-daemon.

The video was interesting. It seems like xsplash is not loading the background image for you. Can you open up a terminal and run:
   sudo -u gdm xsplash

And confirm that it does the same thing?

Also, please post the contents of /var/log/gdm/xsplash-user.log here after you've reproduced the issue (e.g., if you run xsplash from the terminal and the problem doesn't happen then don't post xsplash-user.log, logout/login first).
