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?
