Title:
  reveal of global menu not working on primary monitor in dual setup

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When using an additional external monitor, the reveal of the global
  application menu on the laptop (left) monitor only works for the first
  menu entry if the two screens are bottom aligned.

  The menu only appears when mousing over the first menu entry or the empty area of the global title/menu panel. When moving the mouse over the area where the other menu entries are supposed to be, it disappears and the window title is shown again.
  The only option is to mouse-over the first (left) menu entry, click it and then move over to the other menu entries.

  All works as expected on the right (external) monitor.

  Also this only seems to not work correctly if the two screens (with different resolutions) are aligned at the bottom or the left (laptop) monitor is placed lower.
  Works correctly again as soon as they are top-aligned or the right external monitor is placed higher.
