Okay, discussion on IRC seems to believe that this is related to dbus' Upstart job believing that DBus is listening before it actually is (my wife says I have this problem as well). To fix that we need to change the session job to expect a fork, and have the daemon fork, as it will listen before forking.
<jodh> tedg: once you can recreate the problem, I wonder if it is worth tweaking the session dbus.conf job to "expect fork" and "--fork" like the system dbus job already does. That may give a "more correct" started event time.
<tedg> jodh, Why would that be more correct?
<xnox> tedg: dbus forks after it starts to listen, thus expect fork with --fork will make sure started is emitted only after dbus is ready.
