The problem is back. The session is reopened, with the same resource id.
Googling around showed that it is hangouts-related. Google seem to do this on
its own. I actually uninstalled it from my phone but google opens a hangouts
session on its own. Bloody hell!

"So yes, Google Hangouts stays connected even if the device you’ve logged into
from is not. Apparently this is a connection that’s created internally, inside
Google, from their Hangouts service to their Talk service — from the new IM
tech to the XMPP tech. And if you try to trick the XMPP service to sign out
Hangouts (for example, by creating a new connection with identical XMPP
resource), the Hangouts will happily log back into XMPP in your name and
present you as ‘away’. And messages intended to be stored offline will end up
in Hangouts, never to be seen again unless you use Hangouts on other systems."
