OK, some questions to narrow this down:
      * is the gconfd-2 daemon restarted when this happens? i.e. does
        the startup time still correspond to the one of the session?
      * If, when this happens, you kill the gconfd-2 process, do
        notifications start to happen again?
      * If, when notifications are still working, you kill the gconfd-2
        process, do they stop working?

Thanks,
