[Bug 1007976] [NEW] Windows jump to different workspace when switching workspace

 

Public bug reported:

This bug happens in Gnome Classic (not in Unity) when the "Desktop Wall"
plugin is enabled in Compiz. You must also have at least three
workspaces/desktops horizontally in order to reproduce this.

When a window is on workspace #2 or higher (horizontally), and you move
to a workspace on the right of the window, the window jumps to the
workspace on the far left (workspace #1).

Steps to reproduce:
1) Choose "Gnome Classic" at the login screen and log in.
2) Say we have four workspaces horizontally (numbered 1 to 4). Place a window on workspace #2 (doesn't matter which application).
3) Use Ctrl+Alt+arrow right to move to workspace #3.

Result: The window that was previously on workspace #2 is now on workspace #1.
Expected result: The window should stay on workspace #2.
