Title:
  empathy doesn't show contact list window when started

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I run empathy under gnome-shell I cannot get the contact list window back once it's closed. 
  The following is logged in .xession-errors:
  (empathy:1822): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid uninstantiatable type `<invalid>' in cast to `GtkWindow'
  ** (empathy:1822): CRITICAL **: empathy_window_present_with_time: assertion `GTK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

  I have to kill empathy and start it again to get the contact list
  window.

  Steps to reproduce:
  * launch empathy
  * hide contact list window using the top-right close icon
  * verify it's still running in the background
  * launch empathy again
  * nothing happens, expected a visible contact list window

  empathy version:     3.1.91-0ubuntu2   
  Description:	Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
  Release:	11.10
