I'm guessing you only set, not exported the env var. Or xvfb-run is stripping the the env var. Incidentally why are you using xvfb-run? calibre does not need it, it uses a headless QPA backend, which was introduced several years ago, IIRC.
The only tutorial I found that showed how to set up a headless server that worked for me used it. When I tried to run calibredb without using it I would get errors.
