Launcher always appears on workspace 1

I am using arch, i3 & synapse (a launcher, sorta like dmenu but better looking).

My problem is synapse always shows on workspace 1, no matter where I launch it. On my second PC at home, wich is a less clean install of: Ubuntu 12.04 -> remove unity, i3, synapse it works as intended. My dot files are synced through github/dropbox, so both .i3/config and the synapse config are exactly the same.

Any idea why this might be happening?
