Preferences are mediated through GSettings, a feature of Glib-2.0. Although the Gnome folks work really hard to maintain ABI consistency it's really hard. Try building GnuCash in the 22.04 development environment to see if that resolves the problem.
Gnome also provides a build environment in a flatpak called Gnome Builder, see https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Builder <https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Builder>. That may help you sort out if the problem is with GLib, Ubunutu, or somewhere else.
