[Users] Base Layer Does Not Display on Initial Load

Elshae,
I experienced some similar behavior with my page using GeoExt and Google layers. I found that the issue only happened when I used the Google physical or hybrid map as my initial base layer. I change the initial base layer to be Google streets and the blank loading problem disappeared. Once Google streets was loaded I could toggle between the hybrid and physical maps with no problem. So, not actually a solution but it might be worth trying.
I'd be interested to hear if someone chimes in with an actual fix. It drove me crazy for a couple of days too.
Good luck.
