Title:
  Time can not be read when alarm is set (while swiping/opening
  indicator)

Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am on krillin r23 stable (OTA-4), but I have reproduced this bug on
  mako (stable channel) too.

  0. launch a full screen app like Machine Vs Machines. NO alarm set.
  1. can't see the time (expected) because when in full screen: top bar indicator is hidden
  2. swipe from top edge and focus time indicator: you can read the time at the top of the time label indicator (expected)

  Now

  0. launch a full screen app like Machine Vs Machines. At least 1 alarm is set and due in the futur.
  1. can't see the time (expected) because when in full screen : top bar indicator is hidden
  2. swipe from top edge and focus time indicator: you can't read the time at the top of the time label's indicator because the time is replaced by the alarm icon (not expected)

  Current UX to see the time (alternative solution until it get fixed):

  3. swipe from left side, and focus another app not in full screen (or go scope with left swipe)
  4. see time from top bar indicators.
  5. swipe from right to get back at your focused apps.

  Or :
  3. push power (screen off)
  4. push power (screen on, lock screen)
  5. check the time at the top bar indicator
  6. unlock to get back to yout focused app.

  5 or 6  steps are needed to just watch the time while only 1or2 could
  do the work if the time was always shown on the indicator time's icon.

  I beleive this is not a niche need :
   * Alarms are usual
   * Full screen apps too
   * checking time too

  PS: please affect the bug to indicator if needed, It fails when I
  tryed submit from here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
