Title:
  Unity restores windows to random workspaces on system resume

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
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.
