I believe you need to set the attribute RegistrySearch/@Type="raw" to read 
REG_MULTI_SZ values, see

Subject: [WiX-users] Error when doing a REG_MULTI_SZ registry search within 
Burn.

Hi

I've been trying to bootstrap Sql 2008 Express and install if required however 
my detection Registry search is failing with the following
error:

Error 0x80004001: Unsupported registry key value type. Type = '7'
RegistrySearchValue failed: 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server', HRESULT 
0x8000400

If this a Burn RegistrySearch limitation? Or have I setup the search 
incorrectly?

   <util:RegistrySearch Root="HKLM"
                                  Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server"
                                  Value="InstalledInstances"
                                  Variable="SQLServerInstalled" />

I'm running the latest source on codeplex (3.6.2907)

Thanks

Richard
