I noticed as well. It's harmless, but it's indeed a bug.

Ah, I didn't find that. It seems that Empathy fails to connect if a
password is given; without password, it can connect (even though then
nickserv asks you to identify).
However, this is a separate issue from the original bug. Do you mind
reporting a new one (just for this IRC issue)?
