Description Luke 2014-07-29 05:29:11 UTC 
Steps to reproduce.

1) Open a recent build of 4.4.0.0.alpha0+ in Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity
2) Open Writer or Calc
3) Select File -> Open"

What is expected to happen in Writer is
The open dialog box will display on the screen

What happened instead is...
Nothing

With the same build of LO in Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Mint Cinnamon, and Mint Mate, the file->open dialog is working. So this is a Unity specific issue.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release: 14.04

Reproducible, tested using own build Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: b4ccde72b8e2e45e7276d5b08b182495a1b1a617 using Ubuntu 14.04 x64
Comment 2 Jorendc 2014-07-30 14:25:21 UTC 
I think there is a big menu-missmatch here. If you go to File > Save as it'll open the "Insert" toolbar.
Comment 3 Jorendc 2014-07-30 14:52:15 UTC 
Tested using the Pre-release PPA (https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/libreoffice-prereleases) which do now provide 4.3.0.4rc

Not reproducible. So a very early 4.4 vs 4.3 regression.
Comment 4 Luke 2014-08-10 17:42:11 UTC 
Note that this only affects the menus in the Unity panel. Until this is fixed, you can use the toolbar or the Start Center to open/save.

Comment 6 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2014-09-07 07:35:41 UTC 
Complementary findings in duplicate bug 83566 for menus File > Close and File > Reload

On my own build the menu File > Open opens one of the recent files but the seems to be randomly chosen.

Best regards. JBF

git log --pretty=oneline libreoffice-4-3-branch-point..b4ccde72b8e2e45e7276d5b08b182495a1b1a617|wc -l
4119
git log --pretty=oneline libreoffice-4-3-branch-point..b4ccde72b8e2e45e7276d5b08b182495a1b1a617 -- vcl/|wc -l
306

So 4119 commits in that range, 306 in vcl (where the offending change is assumed) => ~9 bisect builds needed.
