This behaviour was intentional and makes sense when the floating window is a different app. For example:
  1. Open a web browser and full screen. Unity disappears.
  2. Open a terminal: Ctrl+Alt+T. Unity re-appears.

Unity is designed and meant to be visible whenever the top-most window is not fullscreen. However it sounds like what we really want is "whenever the focussed window is not full screen".
