Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Regression in launcher / global menu drawing.

  [Test Case]

  Exit fullscreen mode from programs such as VirtualBox and KRDC the
  Unity Launcher on the left of the screen and the Global Menu at the
  top screen both disappear, and come back after clicking with a mouse.
  Expected result would be that they do not disappear.

  [Regression Potential]

  None known, draws the menus when full screen app is minimized.
  Automatic tests included.

  UPDATE: I have uninstalled the customized version of unity (ikarosdev-unity-revamped) using the following command:
  sudo apt-get purge unity unity-services unity-common libunity-core-5.0-5

  I then removed the custom unity ppa from my system and proceeded to
  install the official version of unity 5.6.

  I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW:

  After upgrading to Unity 5.6 on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit, now when I exit
  fullscreen mode from programs such as VirtualBox and KRDC the Unity
  Launcher on the left of the screen and the Global Menu at the top
  screen both disappear.

  All I have to do to get them to reappear is click anywhere on the
  screen, which seems entirely unnecessary... I did not experience this
  behavior with Unity 5.4. Also I am experiencing this behavior on two
  different laptops that are both running 12.04 32-bit with different
  hardware and software configurations.

  Screenshot is attached.
