Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

When I enable compiz desktop effects and select "Desktop Cube" as the way to change work spaces, I am unable to switch to all the virtual work spaces using the menu bar "Workspace Switcher" applet or using keyboard shortcuts if I set the "Workspace Switcher" applet to have multiple rows. When I try to switch to Workspace 3 or 4 it just goes to Workspace 1 or 2 (even using keyboard shortcuts). When I disable "Desktop Cube" or select a different effect to switch work spaces it works fine.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Enable Desktop Cube (and Rotate Cube) in System->Preferences->Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
2. Add a "Workspace Switcher" applet to one of the system menus
3. Right Click on the "Workspace Switcher" applet & select preferences and add 2 or more columns and rows
4. See if you can switch to every workspace using the applet or using keyboard shorcuts

Same basic issue. Enable desktop cube and desktop switcher will not work. Disable and it will work.
