google chrome - missing taskbar icon (43.0.2357.65)

I just updated to 64 bit chrome, and I'm using the Numix Circle icon theme in xfce.  The taskbar icon is now a generic icon, even after updating the icon cache.

Is anyone else seeing the same thing?

Same problem here (Mate DE), this problem is being seen since latest betas and dev-builds. Latest stable is based on latest beta, so problem comes to stable too
I filled a bug report weeks ago...
ps. It seems to work fine with KDE (tested in kubuntu), not sure about arch/kde

Has anyone found a fix/workaround?  The maintainer suggested commenting out the Version=1.0 line in the .desktop file, but it didn't work

I'm just using Openbox with Tint2 and the icon is missing too. So it's certainly not specific to XFCE.

Edit: Just found this bug report

Latest dev build (from may-20) fixed the problem!
