Hi all, I have had the same problem. I also used the sleep option mentioned above and it works like a charm. The script below is a wrapper script I use for skype - it also fixes an interfacing problem with the webcam for me (upside down image). Create a script "skype-wrapper" in /usr/bin, copy the text in it, and make it executable. Run it instead of skype and all should be well.
This is a kluge fix though - long term skype should be packaged for unity/ubuntu to work without delay or fixes. ** Attachment added: "skype-wrapper" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/765269/+attachment/2102511/+files/skype-wrapper -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/765269 Title: Missing tray icons if processes start before Unity does -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
