Bug Description

Hello

Ubuntu 16.04 Unity

When a new software is installed - either through synaptic, or new software-center or using apt-get install,

it does not appear anywhere in the dash.

Newly installed software(s) can be run from terminal though.

Newly installed software(s) appear in dash after reboot, or session logout/login back.

( It seems close to https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-2d/+bug/719400 )

Same here, happening with fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. A workaround is posted on #1506744 to kill "unity-scope-loader" but this shouldn't happen with an LTS release. Hope it's fixed soon.
