Bug Description
PROBLEM
Unity basically works out of the box, but changing screen edge triggers for any action in Compiz Config messes it up. When I selected triggers for the Scale plugin, they didn't work until after I'd restarted. And after changing the screen edge to trigger the Unity launcher (and then changing it back), even after a restart it didn't work.
Currently only the left edge triggers the launcher, even though the screen edge selected is the upper-left, and mousing into the upper-left corner does not invoke the launcher at all.
HOW TO REPRODUCE
1. Change screen edge settings in Compiz Config, including the Unity settings.
2. See if they work after closing Compiz Config.
3. Change the Unity settings back to their default.
4. Restart the computer.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
Compiz Config won't be messed up, and it and Unity will play nicely together.
