Title:
  10de:0caf [Dell Alienware M11x] Unity malfunctions when using multiple
  screens

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When I hook up my Alienware M11x through HDMI to my TV, my unity
  button goes away. If I put my mouse in the upper corner, I still
  sometimes get the unity bar on the left of my screen, but it doesn't
  go away unless I click something in it, and even then it doesn't
  always, frequently either not opening at all, or not going away even
  though I'm trying to click elsewhere. I have my screens cloned, and am
  using the Ubuntu Nvidia XServer settings to do it. (I also can't get
  sound on the HDMI out, but that's another well known bug.)
