I do not get an unread count on the launcher icon.

Asked by Grant Shearer

The notifications work fine, but the unread count doesn't show in the icon. Any ideas what could cause this?

A little more info: I have used the CompizConfig Settings Manager and changed the settings under Ubuntu Unity Plugin. I'm not sure if this is at all related, but I figure more information is better than none.

Here are my settings (I don't remember what the defaults were):
[Behavior Tab]
Reveal Launcher: Left
Hide Launcher: Never
Key to show the Launcher: <Super>
Key to put keyboard-focus on Launcher: <Alt> F1
Key to execute a command: <Alt> F2
Key to open the first panel menu: F10
[Experimental Tab]
Backlight Mode: Always On
Launch Animation: Pulse while running
Urgent Animation: Wiggle
Panel Opacity: 0.8000
Launcher Icon Size: 32
Hide Animation: Fade and Slide
Dash Blur: No blur

Nevermind, I'm mentally challenged. After messing around with all the Launcher settings I went into the Ubuntu Unity Settings and noticed that I somehow had a blank account setup as the #1 account and then my other two accounts as 2&3.

I'm guessing it was choking on this and assuming there wasn't anything setup. I removed the blank one and now it works.

Thanks for the great app!
