There is actually nothing that can be done here.  Only 1 location on the
screen can be the icon region for an application.  If you run more than
1 dock, then they will (at best) fight to set that region.  Unity
updates the region more often than say Docky, so it 'wins' in that
situation.  There is nothing the docks (or Unity) can do here.

Title:
  Unity Launcher steals minimize app animation end point from other

Bug description:
  If I use a dock app other than Unity Launcher (e.g. Docky, AWN, Cairo
  etc.) and use an animation for minimizing my open windows (for
  example, 'Magic Lamp'), the animation should be ending on my dock
  app's icon for that window. However, more often than not, Unity's
  Launcher steals that end point, so on minimizing the animation's end
  point goes to the Launcher instead on the other dock app as it should.
  Same thing with the start point for the restore animation. This is
  most frustrating for me, it looks disgusting.

  I suspect (but I can't be 100% sure) that Plank is the only dock app
  not affected with this problem.
