I have this bug in ubuntu 14.04 however only when using a certain
display configuration.

I have an nvidia graphics card and I typically use 3 displays, 2
monitors and a TV connected via HDMI cloning the output of one of the
dual monitors.

In this configuration its not possible to have any full screen
application open without unity appearing on top of the application. If I
switch the TV to being a separate display rather than using the clone
option the problem goes away.

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  1. Start a fullscreen application (e.g. Firefox in Fullscreen mode)
     -> Verify that the panel is not visible

  [Regression Potential]
  Visual regressions, shell drawing problems. Part of a big change, many regression potentials.

  Original description:

  NOTE: This bug is only about the single monitor case. If you still
  have problems with multiple monitors, see bug 748539 instead.

  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  In natty alpha 3 up to date, I cannot get fullscreen in any application. Panels are still visible.

  Tested with:
  - totem
  - vlc
  - firefox
  - chrome
  - geany

  Unity panel and top bar are always on top.

  -----------------------------------------------------
  Desired Solution:

  - When a window is fullscreen (note: this should not be confused with
  the *maximised* state) the menu bar should not be displayed.
