Title:
  Unity's global menu bar doesn't show up correctly on external monitor

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

Bug description:
  I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 and I'm running it with the default
  Unity GUI. I have two monitors and the problem I'm experiencing is
  that the global menu bar does only appear correctly on my right/second
  monitor. On that monitor, the global menu bar appears when I hover
  with the mouse cursor on the bar anywhere to the left of the tray
  icons, just as expected.

  However, on my left/first monitor, the global menu bar does appear
  almost as on the right monitor. But not when I hover over the area
  where the menu items are supposed to appear. If I move the mouse a bit
  to the left or the right of that area, it does appear.

  Here are two screenshots that maybe are easier to understand:

  My graphics card is an AMD 6870. I'm using the proprietary AMD
  graphics drivers from Ubuntu's "Additional Drivers" window/service.
  However, this problem was also present with the open source default
  drivers.
