The reason for the "disappearance" of the Unistim dissector was that it grabbed
packets that were destined to another protocol also using UDP port 5000, see
the following comment in packet-unistim.c:

/* Don't set this to 5000 until this dissector is made a heuristic one!
   It collides (at least) with tapa. */

A workaround is to select a packet and then do a "Decode As".

A quick (and not that dirty) solution would be to add a preference for setting
the UDP port to something other than 0.

The proper solution would be to change the Unistim dissector into a heuristic
dissector that only picks up Unistim packets and rejects all other.
