Bug description:
  I have an Acer Aspire V5 laptop with a 15.6 inch touchscreen, which
  came preinstalled with Windows 8. As I was testing Ubuntu 13.04 on it,
  I noticed that after a certain amount of time, I am unable to click on
  items with the touchscreen anymore. This only seems to affect the
  Unity interface, and I think it occurs while you're selecting menu
  items, or dragging your finger over them. I'm not 100% certain on
  that. Applications still respond to the touchscreen though, for
  example, I am able to still switch tabs and scroll through pages in
  the Epiphany browser with the touchscreen. However I can't switch
  application windows with the touchscreen, nor can I select menu items,
  click on any launcher icons or use the dash (any elements that make up
  the Unity interface).

  I should also add that initially when I first boot up Ubuntu 13.04,
  the touchscreen works as expected, so this glitch doesn't happen all
  the time. It only seems to be triggered when I open menu items with
  the touchscreen and drag around. I'm not even sure if that's what
  causes it, but that's what it seems like from paying close attention
  to it.

  I noticed this using the January 14th daily build of Ubuntu 13.04, but it also occurs in 12.10 as well.
