Using a startup file with "empathy -h" does not always correct this. I'm running "empathy -h" from a startup file and the correct status is not reflected in the messaging indicator. If I run "empathy -h" manually after logging in the indicator is showing the correct status. It would seem that running it from startup seems to work at random depending on if the indicator is ready or not when empathy is run.
