This is a bug with the dropbox package itself. The appindicator icon and menu is hard-coded for Unity only.

Use this dbus-launch workaround to display the dropbox icon in the system-tray itself.

Please ensure you install the package nautilus-dropbox ... do not install the .deb from the Dropbox website
