you're absolutely right. i just tested it in classic-session. the problem was the same. so it seems to be a problem with compiz!?

btw. the windows are not "all around", as i said in the initial report; they rather seem to be aligned the way they were before i plugged in the secondary monitor, but without considering the 1080 pixels that are 'new' to the configuration. so a window that was on my second workspace in a one-monitor-layout, will appear on my first workspace in a two-monitor-layout, because it keeps the same distance to x=0/y=0 (which is the upper left corner) as before.

my way to "work around" this problem is to press "super+s" and drag the windows to the workspaces i have assigned them to before. doing this every time i change my monitor-layout is quite annoying.
