I'm also seeing this. I've always used empathy -h in my startup applications so I'd be signed in in the background - I'd forget to sign in otherwise, but I also didn't want it popping up every time I signed in. In the past it would sign you in and then you could get the contacts list to pop up by clicking on the empathy icon in the email/chat indicator icon. Now with empathy -h the program seems to be running in the background, but there's no way to bring up the contacts list - trying to run empathy from the dash, terminal indicator icon, etc all fail. The only way I can get it to run is to first run "killall empathy" and then relaunch.
