This bug was reported to the Debian BTS.

"If the panel is full, and the screen is resized to a lower resolution with
'xrandr' 
or the 'grandr' applet, some of the rightmost panel items are made unavailable. 
If the screen is then restored to its previous higher resolution, the panel may 
not be the same as it was before resizing.

Some ideas as to solutions, so that all buttons and applets would stay
available 
at all resolutions:

        1) the panels be made scrollable if everything won't fit
        2) panels should add a temporary new drawer on the end, 
           full of any stuff that won't fit, as needed."

I think bug 309192 and bug 131332 are related.
