Same for me. the icon is missing. Same with power-manager icon.
When you restart hal the power manager icon shows just for a second or two.

If you create new account on your computer (with empty home directory) and log into you will see the icon.
So it must be something broken with the configuration files.
I will try to find out which file is it - i guess one from gnome configuration. But unfortunately don't have lots of time.
