Bug Description

There is something brokedn with message notifications after recent upgrade:
skype-wrapper_0ubuntu6.5.2~precise3_all

After fresh re-install I received notification for a single message once, in launcher and in message menu, but then it stopped to work. The online/offline notification bubble still works fine.

Hm. Actually I don't know what was a reason but... I solved this problem as
- completely purge wrapper from the system
- fresh install latest version
- nothing except online/offline bubbles works
- relogon - same issue
- reboot - all is working

Skype 4.0.0.7
12.04

@paranoic-san, that's exactly what I meant by "fresh reinstall" :)

Unfortunately mine is less lucky, for me it works very occasionally, sometime all seems fine, another day it crash, another day it works for a first few messages...

@Toni, I wasn't receiving internal error notices for a few days after disabling the Playback, not sure if related, but today, during log in time, it popped up again, i.e.:

    indicator-applet-skype.py crashed with NameError in __init__(): global name 'unitylauncher' is not defined

Meanwhile notifications still doesn't work as expected, sometime appearing and other time not.
