Thanks for the elaboration, Jens. Unfortunately, rygel is still not autostarting for me in 12.10 (see also Thomas Hood's similar experience in comment #13 above).
I performed the following steps:
1. Install rygel in Ubuntu 12.10.
2. Check that "Make local sound devices available as DNLA/UPnP Media Server" is ticked in paprefs.
3. Check that "Share media through DLNA" is ticked in rygel-preferences.
4. Log out and back in.
rygel is not running.
As for point b), that's a perfectly good point. If rygel should be started automatically as a result of configuring sharing, there's no need in any case to make it available as a user-visible service.
