Bug Description

When I double+click on an XLS/XLSX/... file in Nautilus. The file is opened correctly but the icon is invisible. (See attached screenshot)

In contrast, when I launch LibreOffice Calc from dash home, the icon appears just fine.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Hello. In recent days I have noticed this strange behaviour.
When I start Writer or Impress (I haven't lock thier icons on the launcher), it can happen that:
a) it is not listed between the applications in the launcher (and even in the ALT-TAB window there is a "hole");
b) may be in the launcher but lower down, with a grey empty area between the last icon and the Writer icon.
