UPDATE: I have uninstalled the customized version of unity (ikarosdev-unity-revamped) using the following command:
sudo apt-get purge unity unity-services unity-common libunity-core-5.0-5
I then removed the custom unity ppa from my system and proceeded to install the official version of unity 5.6.
I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW:
After upgrading to Unity 5.6 on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit, now when I exit fullscreen mode from programs such as VirtualBox and KRDC the Unity Launcher on the left of the screen and the Global Menu at the top screen both disappear.
All I have to do to get them to reappear is click anywhere on the screen, which seems entirely unnecessary... I did not experience this behavior with Unity 5.4. Also I am experiencing this behavior on two different laptops that are both running 12.04 32-bit with different hardware and software configurations.
