[Bug 1498199] [NEW] Switching to fullscreen app causes unity freeze

 

Public bug reported:

I'm reporting this for unity but it might just as well be compiz-
related.

Reproduce

1. Open fullscreen app (e.g. fullscreen HTML5 video, a game)
2. switch to another virtual desktop (i.e. using crtl+alt+arrow_keys)
3. switch back

This started happening to me in 15.04. It does not happen all the time
but can be reproduced by trying several times. If you need more info,
let me know what and how to get it.
