Bug Description

Binary package hint: kopete

This bug is probably related to KStatusNotifierItem. Kopetes and also Amarok tray menus has problems with positioning. This sometimes drastically degrades user-friendliness.

On picture [1] is initial position when opening tray menu. This happens only on first opening of menu. Also with Amarok, probably all applications using the same backend.
On [2] you can see that submenu is opened "out of monitor" -> this also happens only on first opening, but only until whole tray menu is closed.
On [3] you can see, that some of the submenus can completely override "parent" menu. In this case, there is probably no way, ho to close submenu without closing whole traymenu.
