Can not call dialog window from libreoffice menu

[朱涛]

Open libreoffice (either in nautilus or directly from launcher), choose menu Help->About Libreoffice(B), a dialog window should display.

However, sometimes (and perhaps frequently) the dialog window doesn't display at all. The same thing happens to all dialog windows called by menus.

libreoffice 3.6.2.2, ubuntu 12.10, unity

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

I have the same issue. Restarting libreoffice (sometimes a few times before it works) is required to make the menu usable again. If there are multiple documents open, it can be that one window has a menu that works, while another has a menu which doesn't. Also, the dialogs themselves are fine - for example, clicking on the save button will bring up the save as dialog for a new file (but File > Save as... will not).
