The autolaunch is keyed to your $DISPLAY, hostname (actually, the machine ID) 
and username. So, either one of those changed, or it was started manually.

I have never seen an autolaunch problem in a properly-configured system. So 
far, all autolaunch problems I have seen are because:
	1) dbus wasn't compiled with X11 support
	2) dbus-launch could not be found
	3) $DISPLAY wasn't set or the X server denied the connection
	4) the machine-id file wasn't generated
	   (I have not seen this one for a year)

So, for all I know, it wasn't broken before. (I am not reverting your change 
though)
