I use the python bindings regularly but I've never got any warnings or errors such as you describe. Just to cover the basics first, are you sure you didn't want to issue the venv command with the '--system-site-packages' switch? Did you have pygnucash loaded to the pip of the python you used for venv? Or instead did you make sure that in your venv you have included the path to your tinkered bindings in your PYTHONPATH? And you activated the venv before using? Sorry if this is all basic stuff you already know about.
