Still having the problem repeatedly where the gear icon, clock and more
don't show up in the top status bar. Repeatedly. Every time. But things
have gotten both better and worse.

I found that if I select gnome or gnome flashback that everything is
fine. That is, the gear is there and I can pull down the
shutdown/logout/reboot selection. It's a little weird in that the time
did not show up until Network Time was turned off.

So that's the 'gotten better' part.

If I go back to 'ubuntu (default)' at login I no longer get the top
status bar OR the menu bar. Both are gone completely.

Also, I'm not sure if this is how it's supposed to work or not. If my
windows manager is ubuntu(default) and I let the screen time out so that
I get the login screen if I select gnome to login it's still in the
ubuntu(default) windows manager, which means no top status bar and no
menu bar.

Title:
  top status bar missing shutdown button, clock, sound icon and more on
  upgrade to 13.10

Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug has been split from #1239710 as the branch for which changing
  launcher placement to "all displays" does not work.

  Every time I login, without fail, the top status bar is missing the
  gear icon for shutdown, the date, the sound icon and some others. The
  icons do show from the login window. So if I let the session time out
  so that the screen locks, I the gear icon appears in the top status
  bar and works. I have also added a new user to see if the issue has
  something to do with my account. The new user also has an empty top
  status bar.

  The issue happens for both dual monitor and single monitor
  configurations. When the second monitor is connected, setting launcher
  placement to "all displays" does not solve the problem. Neither does
  mirroring the displays.

  Everything worked just fine with 13.04. The problem appeared
  immediately following upgrade to 13.10.
