           Summary: Occasionally, new incoming chats are ignored
           Product: telepathy
           Version: git-latest
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kde-telepathy at kde.org
        ReportedBy: biert85 at gmail.com


Version:           git-latest (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes when people start a chat with me, I get no notification about it. On
opening a chat window with the contact, no messages are shown.

I'm under the impression that it happens when I've talked to someone before,
but the chat was closed or has been quiet for a while, but I cannot confirm
this 100%. Maybe a chat can timeout, which isn't handled properly, and no new
chat in started on incoming messages?

I'd say this is a problem instant messengers can do without.

I know for sure this happens with MSN (butterfly), I can't say about other
protocols.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
New incoming chat

Actual Results:  
Absolutely nothing

Expected Results:  
Notification, allowing me to respond
