I tested the following on a Dell XPS13 running 12.04 LTS. These packages did not fix the super-p key behavior:

compiz - 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.5~test2
gnome-settings-daemon 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.4
unity - 5.16.0-0ubuntu2~test1

The unity + compiz packages came from https://launchpad.net/~unity-team/+archive/ppa/+packages

To install the unity/compiz packages I used 'apt-add-repository ppa:unity-team/ppa' then apt-get update && apt-get install unity compiz.

After installing these packages and rebooting, I observed that the function key for monitor-switching (Fn-F1) did not cause the video output to switch. Instead the super key seems to be consumed by Unity and the 'p' key is passed to applications - resulting in a stray 'p' being typed into whatever terminal/text box/application has focus.
