It does work as expected if you simply open system-settings and then change focus to another open window but if you open any of the options then it stops working. gnome-control-center: 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/863425/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
