[Bug 1286605] [NEW] Unity global menu causes handlers of the "activate" signal of Gtk.Action to be emptied

 

Public bug reported:

If you launch banshee 2.6.2 or banshee 2.9.0 in Ubuntu 14.04 and start
playing a song, and then go to the "Edit" menu, you will not see an
option to set up the rating of the song.

The culprit of this is Unity's Global Menu, because this menu appears
when launching banshee with UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0.

Under the hood, the reason of why this menu is not attached when running
inside unity is because adding a handler to the signal "activate" of a
Gtk.Action has no effect (maybe Unity is removing all the handlers of
this signal?).
