Title:
  HUD and Dash don't open when global menu is active, but flash on and
  off when menu is closed

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am using a fully updated 12.04 with unity 5.8.0-0ubuntu2.

  Most of the time when a global menu is being used (as in an item has
  been clicked on to reveal the options below it), pressing the Alt or
  Super keys do not open the HUD or dash. But when the menu is closed,
  the hud or dash will flash on for split second and then close again.
  It is expected that they will open even when a global menu is active.

  This is not seen with a local menu, such as with LibreOffice's
  default.

  I have observed a different behaviour that occurs in a minority of
  cases when opening the HUD with a global menu active, if you get that
  bug instead. It's the HUD opening below the menu and not accepting
  input. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/978630
