Title:
  DBus communication problems affecting multiple packages

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I seem to be hitting transient DBus communication problems after a
  fresh install of Xubuntu 14.04 amd64 on my Thinkpad W510 with the
  latest nvidia binaries from the Ubuntu repos. Here are the related
  bugs. Sometimes rebooting fixes things for a while. If I understand
  correctly, at least one of the bug reports (Bug #1314782) suggests a
  race condition is to blame:

  Bug #976638 (pkexec does not find any authentication agent)
  Bug #1193236 (Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-*)
  Bug #1239014 (xfsettingsd unable to daemonize properly when overlay scrollbars are activated)
  Bug #1048805 (xfce4-appfinder launches very slowly)
  Bug #1314782 (multimedia keys don't work when xfce4-volumed is run in daemon mode)
