Nope, it should start with the user session. That's a very likely
culprit for the whole problem. I should have thought of that question
before.

Yes, it's a possibility, but if my last assumption is right, it's a hard
to categorize bug because even if I add a "Depends" on gconfd and you
have it installed, there are no guaranties you'll actually be running it
in your session and the bug would happen again. I can't - as a packager
- enforce relationships on running programs.
So I should probably file an upstream bug to either add a fallback to a
more desktop-environment-agnostic way of running a browser or at least
warn the user that since gconf is not running it's can't locate the
right browser to run, making it at least fail with some sign of life
instead of just doing nothing.

Instead of that, simply try starting gconfd manually and check
transmission again. If it works, my latest assumption is right.

No, you can leave it as sensible-browser or iceweasel. Alternatively you
can delete it and it'll fall back to the installed default.
