@Sebastien: That's quite possible it's a related bug. I noticed it happens with the sound indicator, too. It seems like the indicators become suddenly unaware of your current status (IM/sound level), default to off/none, and need to be reset for them to recognize it.
With the sound one, at least, it can be resolved just by changing the volume. Not ideal, of course! -- status changes to offline on updates https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
