Thanks for the help michikarg. My problem was that openni_tracker required the param "camera_frame_id" identifying the transform from world coordinates to the kinect. I used the following launch file to set "camera_frame_id" to /camera_link which is published by openni_launch.

<launch> <node pkg="openni_tracker" type="openni_tracker" name="openni_tracker" output="screen"> </node> </launch>

Now, sequentially running roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch roslaunch my_pkg the_above_launch_file successfully results in all of the transforms being published!
