Added Indicators make HUD navigation not possible.

[Michael]

ISSUE: Using [ALT] and entering into HUD I am unable to move through the list of options with the arrow keys when Psensor and/or Indicator-Multiload are in use. If I try and move through for example with the down arrow, the lower suggestion will be highlighted and it will revert back to the top immediately.

***

The HUD navigation response appears to be directly correlated to what is running in the indicator bar.

I had the following running:

Indicator-Mutliload
Psensor
PS3 Media Server
Indicator Weather

I quit Indicator Multiload and when arrowed down in them menu the selection remained for a few seconds before moving back up. It appears that when the added indicators refresh that forces the HUD to refresh back the top position.

I deleted the rest and it fixed itself. I can now move through the menu bar without an issue.

FOLLOW-UP

Psensor and Indicator-Multiload separately both cause the issue.

Google Music Manager, PS3 Media Server and Weather-Indicator do NOT effect the HUD.

To reproduce:

Install System Load Manager (Indicator-Multiload) from Software center and have it running in the taskbar.

Then try and navigate the HUD menu and see what happens.

Editing "System Monitor Update Interval" you could extend the "time of choice". But this isn't a good workaround.
