I am seeing this same bug as well, when trying to connect with Empathy (under Ubuntu 12.04) via SIP to a Cisco VCS server over Cisco ipsec VPN. Confirmed with a wireshark capture that the SIP REGISTER requests are going out with the local LAN address instead of the tunnel source address.

Once the vpn is connected, I add an automatic configuration script to the network proxy and apply it system wide. This allows all the browsers and evolution mail client to connect to the internet but empathy does not connect to any chat account. I am able to connect to all chat accounts from web messengers like meebo and trillian. My request would be to add a network preference section in empathy to allow adding automatic configuration scripts. Thanks PS: I think even Gwibber does not connect to the internet when vpnc is connected.
