[hufemj <1253693@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have never had auto login enabled and have had this problem since
upgrading to 13.10. It's still there in 14.04 100% of the time. The
workaround I have been using is to open a terminal window and enter the
following command:

 /usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service&

I was really disappointed that upgrading to 14.04 didn't fix the issue.

I have created test user accounts and found that every user experiences
the problem.

Also, the icons are present in the login screen.

Another workaround is to use something other than Unity. Gnome works
just fine.

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.
