Yup, I have 3 monitors. And the affected applications are full screen.

I have had something sort of similar. Assuming here you have more than 1 screen?
It never happened to me when I had 2 screens, but with 3 it happens on occasion. I have narrowed it down to it happening to full-screen apps. Namely, my browswer was full-screen, and it would be moved to my 3rd monitor. Now I just resize it to be slightly smaller than full-screen, and it doesn't move anymore.

NOTE: This happened to me because I use a KVM with 2 of my monitors. So when I switch over to my work laptop, those 2 monitors go blank and the 3rd keeps displaying. Not sure if this is the equivalent to using a screensaver or not. (and is yours a screensaver, or power managment where it blanks the screen?)

That seems rather strange. Try waking up your computer after it has been asleep for no more than a minute. Does it still happen?

When I wake my computer when the black screensaver is up, my windows will either minimize or change the screen they were on.
