** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Indicators of some Qt apps are not showing after unlocking the screen or
+ shell restart.
+ 
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 
+ - Login to 17.10
+ - launch dropbox (if not already launched)
+ - Launch telegram (snap version or without libappindicator support)
+ - Observe icons in taskbar
+ - Lock screen with Super+L
+ - Unlock screen
+ - Icons should still be there
+ 
+ 
+ [Possible regressions]
+ 
+ Icons that should be hidden could be visible instead
+ 
+ The fix doesn't apply to snapped applications
+ 
  In the Ubuntu Xorg session, with the Ubuntu Appindicator extension
  enabled, the tray icons for QT apps (in my case, both owncloud-client
  from the Ubuntu repos and enpass, from their own repo) show up after
  first logging in. But once the screen has been left idle long enough to
  be put to sleep, and is then woken up (I don't actually have screen
  *lock* enabled, but it still goes comes back to the clock screen and a
  further gesture is needed to scroll that up to get the desktop), then
  the icons for those QT apps are gone. Non-QT apps (eg: in my case
  hexchat, from the ubuntu repos) remain.
  
  For a while and due to inattention it seemed more random than that, but
  I'm fairly sure now it's just the display sleep/wake thing that kills
  it.
  
  The applications are still running in the background (so for instance
  enpass is still available via the browser extension), and can be seen in
  the process list. It's just the icons that have disappeared. If I then
  kill those apps (from the commandline with 'kill [pid]' because there's
  no other interface to do it from) and relaunch them, they reappear back
  in the appindicator area.
