Bug description

When the Workspace switcher's "Type of display" is set to "Simple buttons", active windows on each workspace are indicated by a lighter gray. This indication persists after going into Expo and moving the window(s) from that workspace, and then leaving Expo.

Steps to reproduce

• set Workspace switcher's "Type of display" to "Simple buttons"
• for example, go to Workspace 2
• open Nemo
• go to Workspace 1
• open Expo
• move Nemo to Workspace 1
• focus Workspace 1, leaving Expo

Expected behavior

The indicator should update properly and show an empty workspace.
