gconf-editor has an interesting layout (component hierarch-wise). Those
Name/Value pairs are in a table. Each row in the table contains two 
table cells
(the Name and Value). The first table cell (the Name) consists
of two other table cells (a small image and the text naqming
the gconf resource).

I'm reproducing what you found. That it doesn't speak the value
table cell. It appears to be speaking the table column header 
incorrectly too.

I've filed a bug in Orca (bug #342240) so this can be investigated further.

This might be a bug in Orca. If it's not, then we'll need to file a bug
against gconf-editor and see if we can work around it in an Orca script.

Thanks for reporting the problem.
