Bug Description

I noticed on my Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit that when I have an mplayer window open on a workspace with the right hand edge of the window at the right edge of the screen, if I then navigate to other workspaces and go back to the workspace where the mplayer window is, the window will move a few pixels to the left, not being placed exactly at the right edge of the screen anymore. If I move the screen back to the right edge and navigate through the workspaces again, it will move a few pixels to the left again.

It only happens with mplayer windows, does not happen with cvlc. Any ideas on how to solve this annoying glitch?
