I has happened many times in Nautilus over the last couple months, but it happened the other day "to" Firefox.
I have only seen it once on Firefox. "My solution is restart the "Os", I suspect I would only need to restart the window manager, but have not scrounged around to figure out how to do that. Restart the Os and every thing is fine for a while (couple days to a week) until Nautilus changes something an triggers the failure. The failure usually occurs after I get three or four windows of Nautilus up and I am using all of them reasonably heavily (couple dozen uses an hour ). Not a normal user activity, probably why it took so long for the confirmation. It seems Nautilus is not the real culprit, looks like the logic to display the menus is actually part of the window manager. Hope it helps to find the issue to know that though very rare the issue has occurred while displaying another application. Mind you it is not the case that Nautilus is malfunctioning and other applications are also malfunctioning. I have had many instances where one window of Nautilus is malfunctioning but other windows of nautilus and all other applications are functioning normally. I have had many instances where I just do not use that window. Also when I get to this state all new windows of Nautilus that I open will be broken.
