I agree - I think it's actually an issue with unity/compiz. I also see this sometimes in full-screen Firefox. What appears to be happening is that unity thinks it needs to display a normal window titlebar when in fact it is using the global menu. The black bar at the top of the window is the missing titlebar and the mouse appears to be offset by this amount.
