Description Michael Doube 2009-12-07 15:09:31 UTC 
If I right click on a notification area icon (nm-applet, audio applet, battery applet) to see its context menu, then left click on the icon to close the menu, the tooltip turns up in the wrong place, on the top left hand corner of the screen. This only appears to affect notification area applets and not ordinary launchers.

This is not handled by the notification area, but GtkStatusIcon, I guess.

After Vincent's interest in this bug I tried to replicate it and can't do so anymore so it looks as though something has fixed it.  Will reopen the bug if it reappears.
