I have multiple displays (dual-monitor configuration). After a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 and installing Google Chrome + Google Hangouts extension, all hangouts windows are opened on display that I do not use a lot. Is there any way to set Hangouts to open in correct window? (Dragging it to another window every time is very annoying).

There is trick that can help. Open System Settings -> Display and set Launcher placement to the monitor you need to stick Hangouts windows. Push Apply button. That all. Now you can restore Launcher placement option (show it on both screens) with no affect on hangouts.

You can try running the stand-alone Hangouts application, that you can run from the Google Chrome Apps panel

It does work for me and I can select any application available in any of the two monitors. I am using 16.04 now though

Cheers, Miguel
