I had a similar problem on 17.10, logging on as Ubuntu xorg (not unity).
I tried running with just "ubuntu appindicators", but several indicators
were missing (particularly classicmenu and gnome encfs).

Eventually I got all the icons I need back by installing both "topicons
plus" and "Kstatusnotifieritem/appindictor support" extensions and
disabling "ubuntu appindicators".  On rebooting the latter then shows as
having an error (in gnome tweaks).

That's OK so far, since at least it now does what I need.

However, occasionally on starting up "ubuntu appindicators" becomes
enabled, and "Kstatusnotifieritem/appindictor support" disabled.  I then
lose my indicators, have to reset the extension statuses, reboot, and
cross my fingers.

Title:
  Indicator icons do not appear after upgrade to Ubuntu 17.10

Status in indicator-application package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 17.04 to 17.10 all the indicator icons (Steam,
  InSync, Google Chrome, Hangouts, Slack, etc) are missing.

  A temporary workaround is to kill indicator-application-service, but
  this only works until the next reboot.
