I've seen this before using Ubuntu Feisty and now in Gutsy.  This happened to
me using DVD Decrypter-- I'd start a rip, switch to another workspace and
return some time later to find DVD Decrypter missing.  Using the system
monitor, it was clearly still running, just inaccessible.

It's clearly related to using compiz workspace switching.  Emulating a virtual
desktop is a decent workaround for something like DVD Decrypter.  I don't know
how well that would work for more interactive apps, but it'd be nice not to
have to do that.

One thing I noticed is if I run regularly (Allow the window manager to control
the windows, and no virtual desktop), DVD Decrypter only has "X" button to
close down the app, but no minimize or restore functionality.  If I run it
emulating a virtual desktop, then the app has all 3 buttons.
