I'm also confirming, however in my case the keys that trigger the bug are caps lock and alt-shift (keyboard layout change). The bug occurs at random intervals and doesn't reproduce after logging out and in again. I'm usually running Opera+Banshee+Lyx applications.
The sequence of events typically triggering the bug are: 1. Press caps lock/alt-shift 2. Left-click a random application on launcher 3. Maximize ANY running application -> launcher doesn't autohide 4. Press caps lock/alt-shift -> launcher hides -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/784520 Title: Unity launcher doesn't autohide; toggling Num Lock fixes the problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/784520/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
