Desktop files disappear offscreen when second monitor is connected

[ian-x88lfjiq]

When there is a second monitor attached and when the second monitor is on the right and the top of the second monitor is higher then the top of the primary monitor (on the left), then when one clicks the organize desktop button, the icons will start at where the top of the monitor would be if the tops were both lined up. (see http://picpaste.com/ubuntu_bug-l448hoUU.png). Icons on my computer are arrange top-to-bottom, left-to-right; the default setting.

I am using Ubuntu 12.10.
