Bug description:
On a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04, Unity 5.10.0-0ubuntu6, if I switch
my display settings from non-mirrored to mirrored, the launcher
vanishes. Note that I have the launcher "auto-hide" setting disabled,
so it should always be visible.
[Test Case]
Steps to reproduce:
* Open System Settings -> Displays.
* Make sure the launcher is only allowed to be shown on the external monitor.
* Check "Mirror displays" checkbox.
* Click "Apply".
* Unity launcher vanishes. The only way I've found to restore it is to switch
back to non-mirrored mode.
[Regression Potential]
None.
Other applications are affected by the switch to mirrored mode. If a
window is maximized prior to the mirroring, often it will take up a
narrow vertical strip (maybe 20 pixels wide) on the right side of the
screen - de-maximizing restores restores it to a window, but re-
maximizing restores it to the narrow vertical strip.
