As workaround, you can just use

compiz --replace

Or, if that won't work:

COMPIZ_CONFIG_PROFILE=ubuntu compiz --replace

Title:
  unity --replace kills my session

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Running "unity --replace" from the HUD or Dash causes my whole session
  to be killed. Rather than just simply restarting the unity
  applications, I'm punted back to the login window and all my running
  apps are dead.
