Spotify still randomly freezes the whole desktop, although less frequently since some time. The problem is not yet fully resolved and even if it is a bug inside the spotify client it should not make the whole desktop become unresponsive. In the case the bug occurs I can no longer interact with unity. The mouse pointer also is unable to leave the monitor that contains spotify. I can resolve the problem by closing the window with alt+F4. This also happens when other applications hang for a certain time (for example Matlab or Eclipse) but normally they will recover after a few seconds. I think unity is not very well at handling unresponsive applications.
