Bug Description

Avahi publish by default services of the system (if any), one of them is iChat/empathy. After start on the system with two network interfaces (LAN and WLAN) avahi publish services for both of them.
problems:
1) if you use "avahi-descovery" on other PC and click on published interfaces of first PC - only LAN will respond.
2) if i plug LAN off, nothing will respond. I have to restart avahi daemon to work around
3) if i restart avahi it will regisetr my system with new name, say: bla, bla-1, bla-2 ...

This bug directly affect empathy chat, and other programs using avahi.

PS: may be part of the problem is in "networkmanager", probably avahi should comunicated with NM.
