I now have 3 clients (all up to date, 32 and 64 bit installations) for whom it's happening on 14.04:
1) 24 inch 1920x1080 Samsung screen connected via HDMI (desktop)
2) 10 inch 1280x800 screen (netbook)
3) 15.6 inch 1920x1080 screen (laptop I mentioned previously)
Yet on my own 15.6 1920x1080 screen (another laptop) this never happened. I think it's safe to assume that this has little to nothing to do with high DPI judging by examples above. Now what we need is a way to permanently deactivate this annoying setting so it never comes back unless we want it to.
