Hi Stuart,

Gnucash uses an extra "layer" of program to talk to the various DB backends. 
If you see MySQL then that is a good thing, as GC has been compiled with DB 
support turned on.

Can you check that you have installed the DBI-Postgress driver?
(is is called libdbi-driver-postgresql on my SuSE system, YMMV!)

HTH,
Maf.
