I experienced the same thing without a docking station on current Intrepid. I think it's related to having changed screen size, though, as I did connect an external VGA projector recently. In doing so, I ran xrandr --auto to detect the projector size (which is smaller than my screen), then after disconnecting it, ran xrandr --auto again.

I noticed the issue with Firefox, where the steps to reproduce are:
1. Open firefox on desktop #n and maximize it (works normally)
2. Open a URL on desktop #m (eg. in xchat or gnome-terminal)
3. Firefox flashes on the task bar
4. Switch to desktop #n

at which point Firefox is maximized under the panels.
