Doesn't happen to all newly installed though certainly for some. So some examples of packages that don't show till a log out/in may be useful.
On a fresh 15.10 install today 4 examples
vlc - shows
audacious - shows
synaptic - doesn't show
nvidia-settings - doesn't show

From the above very short list the 2 that don't show immediately happen to not have a %letter at end of the .desktop's Exec= line, the 2 that do show do have such an ending..

More examples of those that don't show would be nice to know & see if the %letter is a factor or not.
