Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Ben Scholzen 'DASPRiD' (dasprid)]

This is most certainly an upstream bug, introduced in Gnome 3.2:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662805

[Ben Scholzen 'DASPRiD' (dasprid)]

Actually, the bug I linked was a duplicate, here is the original one:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661323

If I interpret the comments correctly, this only affects Ubuntu users, but I could be wrong about that.

Fixed upstream ( grab it with gnome3-team ppa if the archive does not have the fixed version)
