Just to chime in, running 16.04.2 LTS on a Lenovo E540. I had this behaviour in dual head operation with an external full hd display. I recently changed to a pivot QHD display, that operates in portrait mode. I am losing windows frequently after returning from a locked screen. This is a rather annoying and repeatable behaviour: - I open a few applications, say, thunderbird, firefox and a terminal - I need to leave, activate screen lock - I return, unlock - thunderbird window is lost, the dot is still displayed in unity's dock - the window dows not return when clicking the application icon - only solution is to right-click the icon, close the app and re-open it

I nearly always have multiple applications open in multiple windows across both monitors and all virtual desktops. When I lock the screen and then unlock, my application windows will move from their original position. Sometimes they are in completely random positions; Other times they seem to get the monitors confused, and rather than being in the top half of the portrait monitor they are on the top half of the landscape monitor; Sometimes it is only a new desktop, but the monitor position is the same; Sometimes it is the same desktop, but on the other monitor. Description: Ubuntu 13.10 Release: 13.10 What I expect to happen: When I unlock my computer, all the windows are in the same position on the same monitor and desktop as I left them. What actually happens: When I unlock my computer, some or all of the windows have been changed to a random position on a random monitor and/or desktop.
