Public bug reported:

When not in auto-hide mode, icons are shifted out of the way of the
dock. This does not happen when the dock is in auto-hide mode meaning
that when there is no window to cause it to hide, the icons at the edge
of the desktop are obscured. These icons are commonly Home, Trash and
various volumes.

Either the icons should be autplaced out of the way of the dock, or the
dock should be able to be made to auto-hide always (my preferred
solution) as well as only when a window would be obstructed.
