Is this bug about the default sensitivity, or about the launcher not
revealing at all no matter how hard you push? Seems like these are two
different problems. (the former being opinion, the latter being a
serious bug.)

I have the sensitivity set very high so that the launcher reveals very
easily. I also have a dual monitor set up. In 5.2 the launcher revealed
very easily for me. Since updating to 5.4 the launcher is extremely
difficult to reveal.

This isn't a sensitivity issue. It seems that something fails when the
pointer first comes into contact with the screen edge. If that happens
then the launcher won't reveal no matter how hard I push. I have to move
the pointer away from the edge before pushing again. The next time, it
might reveal very easily, or it might fail again.

This only happens on the first monitor. The second monitor behaves
exactly as it did in 5.2.

Seems like comment 24 has this problem too, as well as most of the
duplicates of this bug.

Bug description:
  In unity 5.2 RC1:
  - revealing the launcher by putting mouse on the edge and pushing seems very 
hard (the distance to push it long). This is even worse on trackpad.

  Related issue:
  on multimonitor setup, going from one monitor to the edge suffer from the 
same issue (you have to push the mouse a lot, more than it felt naturally 
needed). Especially when you drag a window using the trackpad.
  Also, when you put your mouse on the central point slowly to go to monitor 2, 
you get stuck even if you believe that the mouse is already on the monitor 2 
(because there is one pixel left on monitor 1 and the whole cursor is drawn on 
monitor 2)

  This is on a dell Latitute XT2, with default mouse velocity option.
