I have a similar problem as described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1067414
I can confirm that the solution is to upgrade the accountservice packages. In my ppa https://launchpad.net/~dirk- computer42/+archive/c42-backport/+packages I provide a "no change" backport from raring to precise. Using this backport results in the following update: accountsservice (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1) gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1) libaccountsservice0 (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1) Using this packages solves for me the problem. I suggest a backport of accountservice to precise to fix the problem in precise. As a preliminary workaround my ppa may be used.
