Comment 19 for bug 485923

Fair enough. I've put my package for Karmic in my ppa (https://launchpad.net/~apb-curlybrackets/+archive/ppa) in the hope that it'll help anyone else with this problem. It hit me quite hard as I leave Spotify running under Wine most of the time and I ended up having to reboot every 4-5 days (as that was easier than restarting both the applet and gnome-settings-daemon).
