Did you restart syncevo-dbus-server after rewriting the gconf keys? I
doubt that this is the reason (their values shouldn't be cached), but I
want to rule out this explanation.

What does "syncevolution" (with no args) say about the databases and
their URIs?

Finally, just for debugging purposes, what URI is passed to
e-addressbook-factory over D-Bus? Run dbus-monitor and watch out for the
method which opens the address book (not exactly sure what it is).
