Title:
  Unity global menu of several programs disappears randomly

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

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) and also before on 12.10 (Quantal
  Quetzal) the global menu of a lot of programs randomly disappears from
  the panel. I always had the latest updates installed.

  What should happen:
  Global menu should be visible in any program whenever I hover the cursor over the panel.

  What happens:
  Randomly the global menu of several programs (Nautilus, Firefox, Thunderbird, GIMP, gedit etc.) does not show when hovering over the panel.

  I'm really don't know what triggers the mentioned behaviour for now it
  seems totally random for which program and when it will occur. Usually
  I work with some programs maximized and switch between them by Alt+Tab
  or the Compiz 'Scale' option. For Firefox and Thunderbird it helps to
  minimize the window and maximze it directly to get the global menu
  shown again on hover over. For the other programs
  minimizing/maximizing doesn't help.
