Bug Description

When multiple windows are open, clicking on the launcher icon will only bring up the last used window. Clicking the same icon again does nothing.

Using unity --replace in the terminal seems to fix it for any windows that are currently up, but when a new window is opened breaks it again.

I've discovered it can be achieved by changing the total number of workspaces to 1.
