I had the same problem in 13.04 but after I changed in CCSM/Ubuntu Unity Plugin/Launcher/Duration of Sticky Edge Release after Break from 1000 to 0 the dash autohide is working all the time (changed this for about two days and until now it worked). This workaround was mention here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/300788/launcher-in-13-04-does-not-always- show-when-mouse-touches-the-edge-of-the-screen

It seems to only want to return if you quickly slam your cursor against the left side of the screen, as when you slowly move your cursor to the left side it just sits there. Likewise, if you slowly move it to the left side and you keep applying slow-pressure to "hopefully" get the launcher to return, all that happens is a flickering of shadow along the left edge as if it is trying to return but is stuck. Another thing I have found is that you have to slide the mouse cursor "through" the left side, rather than just to the left side. If you stop the cursor right at the left side without applying "through- force", it will not appear. I dont know if the code requires a certain amount of force or speed to get the launcher to re-show, but it is very un-fluid. It would be nice if work was done to make the re-emmerging of the launcher fluid and consistently perfect.
