The only explanation I can come up with is that gnucash runs in a
different environment than gsettings.
How do you start gnucash exactly ? From the command line or from the
Ubuntu menus ?
I start by clicking on a Desktop icon. If I use the .desktop file from
the package manager installation which contains the line "Exec=gnucash
%f," I get a window titled "Unsaved Book - GnuCash" and I have to use
File/Open to access my data file, so instead I use a copy of the
.desktop file with the modified line "Exec=gnucash
/home/dellbert/Documents/gnucash/Household.db.gnucash" to open the data
file directly.
And to test for the most relevant environment variable wrt to
settings, can you add create a file named "config-user.scm" in
$HOME/.config/gnucash
with this contents:
(use-modules (gnucash utilities))
(gnc:warn "XDG__DATA_DIRS=" (getenv "XDG_DATA_DIRS"))
The next time you run gnucash this will add a line at the top of
your gnucash.trace file showing the value of environment variable
"XDG_DATA_DIRS".
dellbert@dellbert:~$ cat ~/.config/gnucash/config-user.scm
(use-modules (gnucash utilities))
(gnc:warn "XDG__DATA_DIRS=" (getenv "XDG_DATA_DIRS"))
dellbert@dellbert:~$ cat /tmp/gnucash.trace
cat: /tmp/gnucash.trace: No such file or directory

I've started gnucash using both .desktop files as described above, with
identical results - the line you expected at the top of the file is not
there.
Is it expected that gnucash is attempting to read both
org.gnucash.GnuCash.general and org.gnucash.general?
I'd like to know what this is. And can you compare it to what
XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to in your terminal ?
At login:
dellbert@dellbert:~$ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS
/usr/share/ubuntu-xorg:/usr/share/gnome:/home/dellbert/.local/share/fla
tpak/exports/share:/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share:/usr/local/share/:/us
r/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
Regards,
Geert
