I experience the same bug. If I want empathy to connect to my google talk account I must delete it from my account list and suppress the authorization for ubuntu in my google account settings then I have to add again my google account in ubuntu.
One thing strange is that when I add again my google account, chromium (which is not my default browser) is launched to a blank page (about:blank) twice: for the login page and for the authorization page. This does not stop the authorization process. I am runnig a 13.04 ubuntu version uptodate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1168582 Title: Google talk "Requires Authorization" after suspend/resume To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/1168582/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
