Title:
  The "spread windows" functionality (super+w) does not always work

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Sometimes the "spread" functionality does not work in a login session. Login out and in again is makes it work.
  I think the problem always occurs in the first login session after I start my computer.

  expected behaviour:
  super+w spreads all the windows on the active workspace

  actual behaviour:
  The windows are not spread (and a "w" is typed in the active window if it's possible to type anything there).

  (I'm sorry if I indicated the wrong package, I didn't really know
  which to choose.)
