This occurred immediately after clicking on banshee to start it, immediately after logging in after turning on the laptop.

This happened to me after attempting to load a suggested application (eclipse) from the unity launcher in the software centre

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 3.8.10-0ubuntu1
