Bug Description

Whenever I'm connected to a computer via RDP and someone else connects, it disconnects me (like you'd expect), but the alert for this shows up in a very odd and annoying spot.

I have a dual-screen setup, and I only ever use Remmina on the screen to my right. I either use it fullscreen, or in the lower-right quadrant (fullscreen for remote sessions, lower-right for the main "saved connections" window).

When I get the alert that I've been kicked off, it displays in the upper-left corner of my left screen, UNDER the active window (usually Firefox). I should note that this only happens when Remmina is NOT the active program.

When Remmina *is* the active program, the alert will pop up in the center of the screen of whichever monitor my mouse cursor is currently located on.

Attached is an example of the alert box I am referring to.
