Could you please try this with Oneiric Unity, I believe this is fixed (testing locally) either in Compiz or the nvidia driver, or both. Marking as incomplete pending feedback.

This bug was reported on a development snapshot of Unity but lacks elements for it to be actionable:
- there seems to be no reports of further occurences of the issue
- the bug cannot be reproduced reliably
- the information provided is not sufficient to track down the issue to a particular programming error.
Could you please check if this issue is present in the current version, and if it is reopen the bug to a NEW status.

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.
