Title:
  Status on messaging indicator is greyed out if Empathy is added to the
  "Startup Applications" list

Status in “telepathy-indicator” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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.
