Google Hangoust stick to the wrong display (monitor) in Ubuntu 14.04

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.
