Binary package hint: transmission
If transmission is present in the startup items list , it loads faster than the indicator-applet and skips the applet to use the notification area instead.
This happens sometimes and not always.
Maybe transmission should wait for indicator-applet to be loaded?
This does not happen with other applets , gpm/volume/rhythmbox. Hence I'v reported it in transmission.

- Easier to reproduce when I logout and relogin to the session. Since the session load time is quicker now.

Transmission doesnt use indicator-application if present in the startup applications |
Application Indicator users launched at start-up skip the applet and fall back instead |

When an application that uses Indicator Applications is launched at start-up it is often launched more quickly than the Indicator Applet, which means indicator-application-service isn't launched yet. Therefore the applications fall back to using a GtkStatusIcon.
Edited scrollback of a chat about this issue on #ayatana:
<qense> chrisccoulson, do you think bug #526499 can be solved with a "X-GNOME-Autostart-Delay"?
<chrisccoulson> qense - i'd prefer not to do that
<24chrisccoulson> that seems like a hacky solution
<chrisccoulson> i'd rather fix the real issue, which is that it falls apart if transmission starts before indicator-application-service
<qense> shouldn't the library launch the service over DBus?
<jpetersen_> qense, that bug also happens with other autostarted applications like gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-power-manager
<tedg> qense: Should the application start indicator-application-service?
<qense> tedg: here it is causing problems
<qense> but it might be desired behaviour when people remove the applet
<qense> from their panel
<tedg> qense: I was thinking no, as if they haven't got the applet, they're effectively voting no.
<tedg> qense: Plus there is no way to start applets externally.
<tedg> qense: We could start the service, but not do much with it.
<tedg> qense: This is another reason gnome-panel needs to die :)
<qense> that's true, but it would require the autostart applications to use the X-GNOME-Autostart-Delay key
<qense> which is a bit hacky
<qense> isn't there a way to give the service priority over other applications?
<tedg> qense: No, we need to fix it so that they'll wait a bit.
<tedg> qense: They already don't fallback immediately.
<tedg> qense: There's a bit of hysteresis so that if the service dies, the user shouldn't notice as it'll get restarted.
<tedg> qense: The applet will restart it immediately.
<qense> I've noticed that already. :) it's unkillable!
<qense> so a delay key it is, you say?
<tedg> qense: I think we should probably do it in the library really.
