The difference I am seeing in my situation is that when I remove the
duplicate google account that is failing to authenticate, I can no
longer use the Accounts window. It opens, then immediately closes.
If I run it from a bash shell I get:
$ empathy-accounts

Having searched, I think I have Bug #1187355
