I've been having the same problem for a week or so. At every startup of Empathy, I would get the authentication problem. Sometimes it would take 2 or 3 retry attempts and the connection would finally succeed. Other times the connection would never succeed.
As usual, it seems that the bug has disappeared now that I have reported it! When I logged into Empathy tonight, I had no trouble logging in at all. I assume it might be a difference between my home and work networks. I will follow up tomorrow. If the problem re-appears, I will update the AuthClient and MC log files.
