Default [Q] Google Talk Message History Not Working

Has anyone else noticed that Google Talk behaves quite a bit different on ICS?

In the past, on all my Gingerbread phones 2.3-2.3.7 the chat history would be synced to my phone regardless of where i sent the messages.

For example, if I sent 35 messages on my iPhone and picked up my android 2.3ish device, all the messages I sent would be in the chat log with that person.

Now in ICS on the Galaxy Nexus it does not seem to do that, or does it very inconsistently. Is there something I am missing, or did they try to make it "intelligent" and try to only send messages to the device that you're having a conversation on. If so, thats really disappointing

Did you ever figure this out? I am having the same issue on my Asus Transformer Prime running ICS (4.0.3). I can send a message from the Prime, but it won't show up in the chat history on the Prime. But when I view it on my laptop or phone, it shows up immediately.

Default Miss History

I miss it very much also... And searching for history either in gmail app or in gtalk does not work.

That is another function I was praising about on my phone that's now removed.

Default Similar issue

I am having a similar issue. Do not own a Nexus, but a Defy, running ICS / cyanogen 9. The conversations I make on the device doesn't show up on the gmail site. Haven't tested the other way round.

I have noticed this being buggy also. It usually works properly, but there are a few Google Talk messages I sent that were never synchronized to the log on my Google account.
