I've never noticed such issues when launching gedit from the GUI. Furthermore, I didn't see any error messages in dmesg or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. When the problem appears, it often persists until the next reboot.
Those are unrelated log files. Take a look at ~/.xsession-errors*. Gedit seems not to use /run/user/*/dconf/user, if it would, it could be the source of issues, at least after running gedit with root privileges. Did you test pluma? Unfortunately pluma does use /run/user/*/dconf/user, but OTOH it's based on GTK2 and closer to the old gedit, than gedit is nowadays.
