Yes, the Desktop version of Unity will use the global menu by default.
- To disable the global menu remove the indicator-appmenu
package, then log out and back in.
Unity will continue to run without it and your menus will appear inside the application windows as normal. You can also tell the appmenu to ignore specific applications if you're having a problematic app.
The command line way to remove the package is:
sudo apt-get remove indicator-appmenu
Removing the appmenu will break the HUD feature
Provided that some of the programs you mention must integrate with Unity global menu, I suggest to check that you have the required packages.
I. Open synaptic
II. Search «appmenu» in Quick filter. According to me, these are the packages you must have installed:

Are you talking about Qt3 or Qt4? Qt3 is not supported at all and there is no way to work around that. But Qt4 is supposed to be supported out of the box, and if it doesn't for you it might be a bug.
