Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
The following only happens if "Keep previews of minimized windows" is active in the compiz "Workarounds" plugin.
Instead of not displaying a window, 'empathy -h' leaves an invisible window on the desktop. Sometimes the empathy window flashes before becoming invisible. This is not a brick-wall invisible window as in previous unity bugs; this one can be moved and interacted with, and even displays tooltips and drag-and-drop objects (i.e. contacts). The empathy launcher is not displayed. Selecting "Chat" from the messaging menu restores the visibility of the window and makes the launcher appear.

I can't actually reproduce this one at all. Is it 100% reproducible for you?
