I don't know much about the dbus stuff. Have you made any customisations
to your gnome-jhbuild-session script? Your screenshot mentioned problems
with the session bus. This is a long shot, a stab in the dark - in your
gnome-jhbuild-session script, try replace this:

jhbuild run gnome-session

with this:

jhbuild run dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session

The idea came from here:
