Public bug reported: When I hook up my Alienware M11x through HDMI to my TV, my unity button goes away. If I put my mouse in the upper corner, I still sometimes get the unity bar on the left of my screen, but it doesn't go away unless I click something in it, and even then it doesn't always, frequently either not opening at all, or not going away even though I'm trying to click elsewhere. I have my screens cloned, and am using the Ubuntu Nvidia XServer settings to do it. (I also can't get sound on the HDMI out, but that's another well known bug.)
