=46rom /usr/share/doc/mozilla-bonobo/README:

"To get mozilla to respect your new GConf settings, you need
to get it to flush its mime type cache. The easiest way to
achieve this is to delete your $HOME/.mozilla/pluginreg.dat
and to restart mozilla.

There's currently no easy way for this to happen automatically,
because mozilla caches these mime types very aggressively.
Please see (and vote for!) mozilla bug #125469."

Have you tried this yet?
