Bug Description
When I have a secondary monitor connected in a non-mirror configuration, I cannot get to the Inkscape application in order to work on artwork. I can see the Inkscape app in Expose, but when I click on it, it disappears.
* Inkscape 0.91 r13725
* brew cask 0.54.1
* brew 0.9.5
* Mac OS X 10.10.5

AFAIU (not a homebrew user myself), this is about the official X11-based Inkscape package for OS X (just installed differently), and thus about the same underlying XQuartz issue with Apple's changed default behavior of Spaces with multi-screen setups as already tracked in

Recommended workaround (see comment 4 in bug #1244397):
«Turn off "Displays have separate spaces" in Mission Control if you need to use X11 across multiple displays»
