Gnome Beryl Annoyance (pic included)

I've got kind of an annoying problem. I'm running Gnone and Beryl with Nvidia twinview.  I know this happens because the gnome panels are only on the top and bottom of the left monitor and there is nothing on the right monitor.

Basically, when I open Firefox (anything basically that I want to always open full screen) if it opens on the left monitor (one that has the gnome panels) it opens fine.  However, if I make it open on the right monitor (that has no panels) it will open as in the image below.

Basically, I'm wondering if I'm the only one who notices this problem and if there's a solution. It's easily solvable by a single click anywhere on the browser will shoot it to full screen like it should be, but it's really annoying because it happens every time a new browser is opened and one isn't already currently open.

Thanks for any insight

your not able to solve this by opening the browser maximizing it(or perhaps it would be better to drag it into full-screen) then closing it & opening it again?

A simple click anywhere on the browser window will instantly throw it into the correct size and proportion on the right screen, however It's still annoying. I was just wondering if I was the only one experiencing this or if anyone knows a way to make it open correctly without any intervention.
