Empathy sets the status to 'away' after resume without respecting the previous status. 

Steps to reproduce: 

1. set status to 'offline' in Empathy (e.g. via messaging menu in indicator) 
2. send Ubuntu to standby/suspend to RAM 
3. wake up the system

Result: 

* Empathy's status is 'away' 

Expected result: 

* Empathy's status is still 'offline' 

This is problematic because I become visible in instant messaging with status 'away' without knowing it. 


Using Empathy 3.2.0.1-0ubuntu1.1 on Ubuntu Oneiric with all updates as of today installed. Upgraded from Natty about 4 weeks ago. Possibly related bugs: Bug #544242 and Bug #674500 .
