# Why can't the desktop remember that I don't want mirrored displays when I connect my laptop to the docking station?
* this bug actually can't be reproduced every time I plug in an external monitor. It's hard to tell if there's an underlying logic.
- # oneiric regression: When I connect a monitor to the DisplayPort output, sometimes the sound output also switches to it (but sometimes it doesn't, I couldn't figure out why). The sound output setting is buried deep into Control Panel / Sound Settings / Hardware / Profile, so it took me a while to figure out what had happened the first time.

# oneiric regression: (related, but distinct from previous bug) sometimes when I switch on the DisplayPort output I get no sound output at all, no matter how I set the Profile in Sound Settings. The only way to make sound work again is power cycling the external monitor.
- # oneiric regression: no workspace previews in the panel. There's indicator-workspaces on Launchpad ([[https://launchpad.net/~geod/+archive/ppa-geod]]), but it doesn't start automatically at login.

=== Window management ===
- # oneiric regression: Dragging windows around becomes slow and jerky after some time. OpenGL acceleration works fine, it seems like a compiz issue with the intel driver. I can easily reprodiuce this on a Thinkpad X201 (Arrandale), but it's a lot harder to trigger on a X220 (Sandybridge).

# long-time issue, confirmed on precise: When the video mode changes, full-screen windows often get shuffled on different workspaces and don't come back to their original locations when the resolution changes back. This is particularly annoying when plugging/unplugging monitors.
