Empathy longstanding issue behind proxy

There is a longstanding issue of empathy (or telepathy-gabble) behind proxy.
I have tried to get solutions for years. Here is the description:

Settings:
* I am behind a proxy.
* I have set the system proxy settings and http_proxy/socks_proxy in the environment.
* The latest version of empathy (3.12.1)

Issue:
I use empathy to login GTalk account. The authentication worked fine. However, there is
an error "Network error" showing in the dialog. This happened before displaying
my contacts. I googled this issue and found that something wrong with telepathy-gabble.
So, I abandoned empathy for a long time.

But, recently, I use a newly registered google account to login GTalk with empathy.
Everything is well. I can chat with others. Still, I cannot login with my old account.
This seems wired. I asked others to try their accounts, some of them can login without problem
and some still have problem.

For years, I can only use GMail in the browser to access my gtalk. I know this is about
empathy rather than Arch Linux. But, I like this community and believe someone could help me.
