Look at the first few lines of dynamic_demo.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
import pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')
import gtk

It is using gtk explicitly.  Your output indicates you are using ewx

Maybe you are mixing backends and GUI mainloops.  Make sure your
backend and GUI agree -- eg examples/dynamic_demo_wx.py
