Hackel, does the attached screen shot show the issue are describing? Only a small gray box drops down where the menu should be. Tapping alt and typing does not work properly either, so all menu commands are inaccessible. I've seen this in Firefox and Nautilus on two different 12.04 installs. The only way I know to clear the problem is to close all instances of the application and restart it. I don't yet know how to reproduce this issue--perhaps it only occurs after a Compiz crash.
