[Bug 894766] Re: DBus timeout stalling applications

[alquery]

Can you attach some system logs (.xsession-errors) to show what happens
when the stalling occurs?

Title:
  DBus timeout stalling applications

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Intermittently, I seem to have a situation where applications already
  running are responsive, however DBus appears to be stalling,
  preventing some new applications from loading and causing notification
  messages to be "repeated" on my desktop.

  I had Banshee song titltes and Evolution calendar reminders moving
  through the notification bar, both which seemed to "repeat" at the
  same time that I was unable to load shutter. On the console I received
  the following message.  A minute later the shutter application loaded
  without problems or console messages.

  (shutter:3621): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message:
  Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote
  application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy
  blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network
  connection was broken.

  I am opening this bug to see if others have this issue, and will try
  and see if this is some sort of app congestion with dbus-monitor
