I think I've solved this problem...

Things work properly when you go to your Appearance panel -> Visual
Effects -> set to Normal or Extra. For some reason, it was set to "None"
for me even with Desktop Effects enabled via the Desktop Effects control
panel.

In my opinion, having both a Desktop Effects control panel and these
options under Appearance (not sure what these have to do with
appearance) is a big usability hole. Not a good idea, Ubuntu devs... Why
not consolidate these options and put all of this under Desktop Effects?

Oh well... this is a welcome improvement, now that I have it working :)
