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.
