I get the same behaviour, it happens when starting a new conversation
and when I reply to a message after having been idle and set away. This
is consistent on XMPP, AIM and MSN, I don't use any others at present.

I use the OTR plugin plus a whole load of those from the 2.4.0 plugin
pack. This has been happening since Pidgin 2.5.0, and is still there in
2.5.3, not easy to debug as I use Pidgin on XP at work and don't have
time to fool around much.
