Your call to $checkButton2->set_alignment actually resolves to 
Gtk2::Button::set_alignment and consequently sets the alignment of the 
child of the button (i.e., the checkbox), not the "outer" alignment of 
the checkbox.  This works for Gtk2::Label because it derives from 
Gtk2::Misc.  Remove the $checkButton2->set_alignment call and try this:

        my $aligner2 = Gtk2::Alignment->new(0.5, 0.5, 0, 0);
        $aligner2->add($checkButton2);
        $table->attach_defaults($aligner2, 1, 2, 1, 2);
