This is not a bug. It's a new feature in Ubuntu 11.04 where the systray is only used by indicators and not regular applications. To overcome this, you can enter the following command in a terminal and then restart your sessions (log out and log back in):

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"

Hi,
this command adds indicators that I don't need, especially a second battery applet ! Do you know what should be put instead of "all" to get only davmail's indicator ? I tried "davmail" and "Davmail", but it doesn't works. It should be something with "java" ? I tried also with dconf-tools, there is already "JavaEmbeddedFrame".
Thanks

Try "SWT" instead of "all"

Hi,
With Ubuntu 13.04, I have this message when trying to make davamil icon appear with this comand (gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['SWT']"):

Le schéma « com.canonical.Unity.Panel » n'existe pas

It seems that Canonical have canceled the possibility to enable icons display in the systray. A ppa with a patch has been made: https://launchpad.net/~timekiller/+archive/unity-systrayfix
