I don't play games very often, but it happens from time to time and I thought I should try and solve this problem I've noticed when exiting fullscreen games and return to awesome it seems that awesome "restarts" itself which means that my sys-tray icons disappear. Is there a way to get these icons "back" or even better, prevent this from happening?

Is it one particular game or all games you play in fullscreen? Are you just using the default awesome systray widget?
I checked to see if anything similar happened to me after exiting openarena in fullscreen (the only game I have installed) and I didn't notice awesome restarting or anything happening to the systray. Also, when I try restarting awesome manually (Mod4 + Ctrl + r), my systray just reappears with the same icons. Do your icons disappear when you do that?

I forgot to mention that it's the wine-systray icons disappearing, doesn't matter if I play fullscreen-wine-games or native games, the winesystray icons still disappears.

That is very odd. I play wine games all the time as well as native, and I have no such problem. In fact, Awesome behaves better than other tiling managers like Xmonad.
