Bug Description
I had removed my second monitor and went to suspend my computer, only to find out that this was an incredibly difficult task to perform: The session indicator would flip out through the other menus when I moved the mouse at all but would remain static on whatever random other indicator it was opening when I kept the mouse still. This has only happened a few times over the past month, it's pretty rare.
Difficult to explain, so please see the attached video as that's all that's really needed for understanding the symptom.
I am using an Nvidia card with the proprietary drivers (290.10, post-release updates channel). Though I don't think that has any bearing on the issue. Also, in the video I am using a wacom tablet as my input so the times when my mouse is completely still are rare (though they do happen a few times).

After a bit more tinkering with it only the user menu and session/power menu are flipping out while the others stay perfectly normal.
