I tried using the mouse-- to see what's happening, I did those steps on other windows so I could get used to how to move the windows around using the mouse and/or arrow keys.
For this mis-behaving window it's not working. Using arrow keys (5sec in positive x direction, 10sec in negative x direction, etc.) or mouse does nothing. On the other windows, the usual behavior is to select "Move" from the context menu and the cursor appears on the top of the window and cursor becomes black-4-pointed icon. For this misbehaving window, selecting "Move" brings the cursor to the top left of my desktop and is not black-4-pointed icon. Rather, it is the usual white arrow pointer. A slight motion of the mouse turns it to the black-4-pointed icon however.
No luck--

Take the move option (right click on application icon in task bar), click left mouse button but try not to move mouse while clicking, hold it and move to the left/right/up/down until it appears in the screen and stop holding the mouse button. What you just did - by choosing move, mouse pointer is positioned at the top of the window. By clicking the left mouse button you are holding ot. By moving mouse you are trying to move it to the area that you see. By releasing the mouse, you are "telling" the system to accept new coordinates and new screen where it will be opened next time.
Hope this helps, because some applications tend to "forget" the last position.
