Timing issue, confirmed too. In my case startup script looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
sleep 10
xinput --set-button-map "Laser Mouse" 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 8 9
empathy -h
start-skype.sh

but without "sleep" does nothing. IMHO many users will be affected...

Title:
  ~/.config/autostart and /etc/xdg/autostart ignored

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-session

  Ubuntu 9.10 RC

  The list off applications listed on the ~/.config/autostar directory, are ignored and not auto started as expected.
  This happens with the main user (user group 1000). Using another user this does't occur.

  Have emptied the user directory for the main user (so, cleaned all the
  settngs and definitions for that user). Logout. Login. Added new
  programs to the ~/.config/autostart  (via System  > preferences >
  startup application. Logout. Login. No applications have autostarted.
  This includes the volume control, nm-applet and all other applications
  on the autostart list (/etc/xdg/autostart).
