I can say that I am no longer experiencing this bug. I'm not sure what corrected the problem. I had an unrelated issue that Midori browser would not play HTML 5 audio so I uninstalled all GStreamer related packages including those needed to make WinFF work correctly. When I reinstalled them, this bug was gone. I've also had a few updates on my Lubuntu installation since then as well so maybe one of those corrected the problem.
