cpufreq-applet does not show text label for 2nd CPU

Bug Description

When the gnome-panel is loaded the 2nd cpufreq-applet (smp kernel) loads and shows only the icon and not the text label, even though it's configured to show both.

Going into the preferences for this applet and changing the Appearance from "Graphic and Text" to anything else and back fixes the issue, but it has to be done every time.

This happens every time the gnome-panel is loaded and can be tested by doing killall gnome-panel in a running session.

It's not always the second cpu it seems. I just logged on and the first cpu was off. But one cpu is always off, first or second. It's almost as if the applet is not initializing properly when there's more than one.

This did not happen under Dapper. Both applets always loaded correctly.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Also the issue that you reported is one that should be reproducable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed release. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ ; Thanks in advance.

The behaviour no longer exists under Feisty, I just checked and the applets load fine.
