Why run a full desktop session for the root user? That's not really good practice (understatement), and it seems more and more GUI applications refuse to run as root.

If that's not what you're doing but you have problems connecting to a session dbus when using sudo, try to figure out how to preserve the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS variable through the sudo call, and if that's good enough for your purposes.
