Emacs only cares about core fonts.  Your installation of Vera Sans Mono
isn't one.  Therefore, Emacs can't see it.

Solution... since even a GTK2 emacs doesn't use anything but core fonts in
editing windows (although it uses Pango for menus and such), you need to
make Vera Sans Mono available as a core font.  Then the XLFD you specified
will actually work.
