As a work around for some people you can install compizconfig-settings-manager and go into the General Options then hit up display settings and disable smart-mode. Although I assume this fix only works for people with different monitors with different resolutions (such as the people like me who had 1366 and then a 1080p tv connected to the HDMI.) I set mine to put everything new into the smaller window (my laptop screen) and it started placing all the dialogs and new windows into the right place.
