[Bug 1397483] Re: Unity restores windows to random workspaces on system resume
This was happening to me, so I disabled Workspaces. It has not stopped
the issue. Windows still up and move after suspend, only now to get
them back I have to enable then disable Workspaces. After re-disabling
windows then reappear.

Title:
Unity restores windows to random workspaces on system resume
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I suspend and resume my latop, my windows, which were originally
all in one workspace, are restored to different workspaces (apparently
at random).
For windows not in the current workspace after resume, the unity
launcher indicates that they are running, but clicking on them has no
effect (it doesn't bring the window to the foreground). These windows
also do not appear in the task switcher so you can't switch to them.
If I have workspaces enabled, this is annoying but can be manually
corrected by showing all workspaces and dragging the windows to the
current workspace.
If I have workspaces disabled, the windows on the disabled workspaces
cannot be accessed at all.
I would expect the windows to be restored to the same workspace they
were in before suspend (especially if workspaces are disabled), and
even if this were not the case, clicking on their icon in the launcher
should display them as normal.
IIRC this is an issue in Ubuntu 14.04 as well as in Ubuntu 14.10.
