I am unable to reproduce this. When I click the dash button on display 1 it opens, when I then click the dash button on screen 2 it closes the dash on screen 1. Pressing again opens the dash on screen 2.

Mine is an Intel based machine. Can someone with nVidia reproduce?

I am using the std version of Unity.

1) click launcher on screen 1, shows fine
2) click launcher on screen 2, flashes up for a moment and then closes
