You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32-bits
Unity 5.16.0

Description:
When you minimize a window, it remains assigned to its original workspace. That means that if you switch workspace and then restores the minimized app, the workspace changes again.
I'm not sure if this is necessary. The Launcher is a space common to all workspaces, and I tend to think about minimized apps as IN the launcher and not ON a workspace.

What I expect:
The app restores at the same screen position, some size, but in the current workspace.

What I get:
The app restores on its original workspace, forcing a workspace switch.
