Ubuntu captures wrong screenshot

[Subodh Dahal]

Whenever I try capturing the screenshot, the screen that I see is never captured. Sometimes it captures the screen that I saw few seconds ago, sometimes it even captures the screen that I was seeing few hours ago and sometimes it cycles between 3-4 same screenshots no matter what application I'm in.

For example: If I'm currently seeing Sublime Text on the monitor and I pressed the PrintScrn button on the keyboard, the capture might display a website that I opened in Firefox. In addition to this, many times it displays a website or application that I closed few hours ago.

The issue also happens if I try to share my screen on Skype, Google Hangouts or any other application that allows screen sharing.
