"Flashback" is someone forking and maintaining the old "fallback" package, which was discontinued upstream after Gnome 3.6. It's actually Gnome 2 underneath; Gnome 3 has never supported alternative window managers directly, "gnome-fallback" instead forced a Gnome 3-like theme onto Gnome 2.

What happens if you choose the "GNOME Flashback (Xmonad)" session when
logging in, instead of the "XMonad" session?
The xmonad package in Ubuntu includes two xsessions, one with xmonad
only and one with "GNOME Flashback" (which I guess means fallback) and
xmonad:
