Xfce not saving settings

Hi,

Just set up my first archlinux installation with Xfce4 and GDM.
The problem is that some settings, for example desktop background, are not being saved.
I do tick the "save session" radio button when I shut down but the settings are reset when I restart.

Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Thanks
