There is a regression which re-introduces this bug when running Gnome-
Shell.  I am running 3.2.2.1 from the Oneiric PPA
(3.2.2.1-0ubuntu1~oneiric1).

I've tried every combination of options listed in this bug report,
including the most common suggestion here and elsewhere to check "Open
chats in separate windows" and uncheck "Idsplay incoming events in the
notification area".

All new incoming chats appear ONLY in the notification area.  If you're
not either constantly checking your notification area, or not looking at
the screen for the 3 or 4 seconds the new notification appears, there's
no way to know someone has sent you a new message, and no combination of
settings seems to affect this.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  On up-to-date hardy amd64, when I receive a message, the tray icon
  start blinking but the message is not shown. I have to click the tray
  icon to see it on a new window (or an open window, depending on my
  confs). This is very annoying, specially if my panel containing the
  tray is set to autohide. There should be an option to open messages
  automatically and/or a better visual message notification (like
  pidgin's guifications).
