Also since the update the connection symbol in the top of the screen isn’t blue anymore but grey, I assume that these two things are connected. This would indicate a problem with syncing in general (system wide), not just with Google.

Yes, the blue icon signals an open connection to mtalk.google.com:5228. If one drops this connection via “disconnect” in google play services monitor the blue icon immediately turns grey.

Google Cloud Messaging also effects other apps than Google Apps, e.g. Threema.
