The attached lp:~stolowski/unity-lens-applications/sc-startup branch may or may not improve the situation by activating software-center-dbus on every search, thus giving it a slight edge over preview request. It helps in typical cases, but there are still cases where it won't help (e.g. search string doesn't change and Dash is re-opened after a few minutes - software-center-dbus is no longer alive and won't be started until preview request). Therefore I don't dare to call it a proper fix. The real fix requires significant re-work of software-center-dbus to make it more robust (e.g. load data lazily, instead of loading everything + doing network queries on startup) or abandon software- center-dbus in app-scope and obtain all the data directly.
