Bug Description

Running precise beta 1 on 32bit with Unity 2d. Enter system settings->personal->appearance->behavior->auto-hide-the-launcher and set it to "on". At this point, all maximized windows take up the entire screen, but the launcher never hides, thus the left edge of all windows are covered by the launcher.

If you set auto-hide to "off" then windows are resized and everything is fine. I've tried numerous things, but I've never once seen the launcher in unity 2d ever actually hide.
