I was  thinking the same thing, but wasn't sure if that variable was
required to have a useful dbus session.  Since I haven't reproduced this
locally and it seemed worth a shot I pushed
https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/accessibility/rev/e95cb5b98154  lets see
how it does.

Title:
  Needs to get accessibility settings from GSettings

Bug description:
  Luke mentioned to me in Dublin that the screen reader doesn't work
  with Firefox when accessibility is enabled. This is because Firefox is
  still using GConf to check if accessibility is enabled, when it really
  needs to be using GSettings. I've just realized this is still the
  case, so I assume that the screen reader still won't work by default
