What settings in particular?  The xsettings-daemon will be overriding
gtkrc with values from GConf, so if you're trying to tweak some
settings then that will take priority.

Other values are likely hard-coded - the Sato engine wasn't designed
to be massively customisable and as far as I know its not really been
tested like this.

GTK+ theming has two different background colours for different
contexts (base or bg), so it's possible that you were only changing
one of them.
