I am seeing this issue on 11.10 (Oneiric) as well, Empathy version:
3.2.0. I would really like to use Empathy, but this is a show stopper
for me. Any updates?

Title:
  empathy does not connect when cisco vpn is on

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi, I am on Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 and I connect to my office network using cisco vpn (vpnc). 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.
