Public bug reported:

I have empathy added as startup application and it is working as desired (auto 
startup on login, connecting to all configured accounts) with exception of one 
issue - in messaging menu status is  shown as 'Offline'.
Empathy itself shows status correctly as 'Available'. This is regardles of 
startup comand used (tried 'empathy -h' and just 'empathy'), only difference is 
that with '-h' option the Empathy window is not present upon startup (which is 
what this option does).
So after logon i need to interact with status (it does not matter wheather 
through messaging menu or Empathy window) and set it to something different 
(like 'Away') to get statuses synchronized between messaging menu and Empathy.
May this be caused by the fact that when Empathy is set as startup it is 
launched before messaging menu is initialized and so it is not receiving status 
updates yet?

Empathy version: 3.4.2.3
Distro: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Architecture: amd64
