For those of you experiencing the issue again after the last compiz update, pinning Oli's PPA as explained in #48 works, simpler instructions are below:

Open a terminal, copy and paste:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/preferences.d/compiz-place-patch.pref

In the gedit window, paste:

Package: compiz-plugins
Pin: origin ppa.launchpad.net
Pin-Priority: 600

Package: compiz-plugins-default
Pin: origin ppa.launchpad.net
Pin-Priority: 600

Save the file, close gedit.

Paste in the terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
compiz --replace &
