Like the title says.

I'm on the laptop I use for work, and I always want Empathy to load on
startup.  So I added it to the list of Startup Applications.  Now, when
I login, Empathy starts, but indicator-messages displays my status as
"offline" and all of the status options are grey.  I have to change
status in the Empathy app itself in order to make available those
options in the messaging indicator.

If I start Empathy via the messaging indicator, I do not have this
problem.

It is small, but annoying.  I think it is simply a case of Unity loading
after Empathy.  There used to be a way to prioritize what loaded first
in the startup applicaiton pile, but I haven't seen that available in
quite a while.  I think it'd probably be best to make sure unity loads
*first* before anything on that list, but that's a guess on my part.
