So the apps can't get dbus session bus address. Now this is a really ugly hack, but try putting this in the script before starting the apps...

Code:
PATH="/bin/:/usr/bin"
pids=`pgrep dbus-daemon`
for pid in $pids; do
    FILE=`cat /proc/$pid/environ | perl -pe 's/\x0/\n/g'|grep SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS_FILE \
    |sed -e 's/SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS_FILE=//g'`
done
eval `cat $FILE`
This works for me, I don't know if there is a cleaner/better way...
