I am not familiar with kde-telepathy-text-ui, but it must provide a telepathy channel handlers. When activating the message in the indicator, it tells telepathy that you wish to handle that channel. Telepathy chooses the handler to use, which in a typical ubuntu-desktop installation is empathy. I am not sure how it chooses if there are more than one installed.

When you open Empathy messages through the indicator of through the launcher icon it either doesnt open any window or it opens the kde- telepathy-text-ui version which doesnt seem to be localized when opened. When i uninstall kde-telepathy-text-ui and relog or restart empathy the issue is resolved but it is very annoying if you want to test multiple Desktops and don't know why your old desktop starts behaving crazy.
