Gah! I figured it out. I thought the DBus was broken, but it sort of isn't. If you specify a full path (no ~) for the second window it works with DBus. If you are using a tilde, then we try to pass that string directly to the vte widget as the cwd when spawning the command (i.e. bash). vte does not like the ~ so defaults to the process cwd. So the issue here is that we (terminator) are not expanding the tilde consistently. I've modified the code to apply the expansion to the option, not just setting the processes cwd.
