[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

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

[Florian Boucault (fboucault)]

I believe that commit 727 of lp:unity-2d that fixed bug #850320 might fix this one as well.

[Alberto Mardegan (mardy)]

The latest duplicates with this bug were reported on unity-2d 4.8. So, Florian is probably correct in saying that the fix for bug 850320 (which was released with 4.10) fixed this as well.
