dbus-launch is what should set the environment variables, not dbus-daemon itself. I let you run dbus-daemon to see if something bad happend to it on your system. According to your original mail the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is set (Could you recheck that?) so there shouldn't be a problem connecting to your session bus... Also please try to re-login if you didn't in the mean time. Maybe the running session bus is too old.. If that doesn't help please send me the output of strace dbus-monitor..
