Public bug reported:

I plug in my monitor into the VGA port and have Chromium running with
multiple windows.  I drag some of the Chromium windows to the secondary
display then later on I disconnect the secondary display without moving
those windows manually back to the primary display.  It use Alt+Tab to
go to another application window (not Chromium) and when I got to
Alt+tab back Chromium doesn't show up.  It does show up in the launcher
on the left, so I can switch to windows that way but it still doesn't
work in Alt+tab.

For some reason if I switch to another workspace and then back to the
first workspace it now recognises Chromium.  I've used Chromium as an
example, but I have seen this with LibreOffice and Firefox.
