There is an open Bugzilla case about this: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=744281> - which doesn't seem to be going anywhere ...

We've applied the patch available from <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598255> to the gnome-session SRPM - which works for us (with the above gconf settings)
