Bug Description

This is a weird multimonitor bug in Unity I've noticed since moving to 11.10. Basically, in a dual head configuration, clicking to open system menus such as the volume control, the logged in user menu, the notification menu, etc doesn't work on the left most monitor, but does work on the right monitor.

On the left monitor, the menu opens, and the closes again immediately. It opens and stays open after clicking on the right monitor.

Regardless of monitor, application specific menus that have been warped into the unity title bar work correctly, so it seems confined to the Unity notification area.
