Hi everyone I upgraded the unity package using "sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install unity" (with trusty-proposed source enabled) and restarted the system. The fix passes TEST CASE mentioned. The bug is now fixed! Thank you. Here is the version details of unity:
Enigma:~$ sudo apt-cache policy unity unity: Installed: 7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 7.2.1+14.04.20140513-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main i386 Packages 7.2.0+14.04.20140423-0ubuntu1.2 0 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main i386 Packages 7.2.0+14.04.20140416-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

From Unity Control Center -> Appearance -> Behavior enable the launcher auto-hiding 2. Press Super+L in order to lock the screen 3. Unlock the screen, now the launcher should be hidden [Regression potential] Unity might hang when locking the screen (due to the sync compiz call to screen->getCurrentTime() that in some very-rare cases in the past demonstrated to be prone to some race conditions). No case has been recorded so far in this scenario, though. ----- I use a Compaq cq40 running Trusty. If I lock the screen using the "Super+L" hotkey, upon unlocking the unity launcher bar appears on the screen. I'll have to press "Super" key twice to hide it again (Hitting once brings up the dash home, hitting once again hides the launcher). This is not observed if use the "Ctrl+Alt+L" hotkey.
