When running dual head, notification area application icons are not visible

[Reinhard Tartler]

When running in dual head mode, the top bar fails to show dock icons from applications such as skype or keepassx.

thank you for your bug report, what do you call "dock icons"? is that notification area icons, skype should be fixed with the natty updates, keepassx is bug #735670, what version of unity do you use?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

eems like your bug could be bug #750481, what version of unity do you use? 3.8.16 which is in natty-proposed fixes that issue

[Reinhard Tartler (siretart)]

Yes, I mean notification area icons, then. Sorry, I'm for not being familiar with the terminology.

I'm experiencing bug #750481, which is a related, but separate symptom. I've tested with 3.8.14-0ubuntu1~natty1, but I'll test 3.8.16-0ubuntu1~natty1 tomorrow.

[Reinhard Tartler (siretart)]

Now with 3.8.16-0ubuntu1~natty1, I can no longer observe the symptoms of bug #750481. However, the symptoms of this bug is still present, that is, neither skype or keepassx show application area icons.
