From here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/runtime-config-replication.html

"
synchronous_standby_names (string)
... The synchronous standby will be the first standby named in this list that 
is 
both currently connected and streaming data in real-time (as shown by a state 
of 
streaming in the pg_stat_replication view). Other standby servers appearing 
later in this list represent potential synchronous standbys....

The name of a standby server for this purpose is the application_name setting 
of 
the standby, as set in the primary_conninfo of the standby's walreceiver. There 
is no mechanism to enforce uniqueness. In case of duplicates one of the 
matching 
standbys will be chosen to be the synchronous standby, though exactly which one 
is indeterminate. The special entry * matches any application_name, including 
the default application name of walreceiver.

"

So I would check the pg_stat_replication view to see if Postgres is seeing the 
standby as streaming.
