I have a similar problem, but it doesn't occur every time. I have two screens - laptop at 1600x1024 and external at 1600x1200. Often at startup, both of my panels which are on the laptop screen end up on the external screen instead. Sometimes I restart X and they load correctly.
I also noticed that, when this happens, the wallpaper ends up the size of the laptop screen, rather than stretched across both screens, and the right-click only has an effect on that region. I'm guessing that sometimes, Gnome does not find both screens immediately, so it sets the desktop size to the size of the only screen it finds and places all panels on it, then by the time everything is loaded both screens are available so that the panels end up on the leftmost screen.
