You aren't giving dbus-python enough information for it to know what type you
want, so it has to guess (and can't get it right in complex cases). You'll need
to give it more information by giving it D-Bus-specific types, something like:

    return dbus.Dictionary({
            'myint64': dbus.Int64(42),
            'mylist': dbus.Array([1, 2, 3], signature='u'),
            'mydict': dbus.Dictionary({}, signature='us'),
        }, signature='sv')
