Android emulator - Soft buttons showing beside the screen instead of on the screen

And they do not work. I think it's because the soft buttons already display on the right-hand side of the emulator, so they don't need to show on the actual emulator screen:

How do I move the soft back and home buttons from the right side of the emulator, to the actual emulator screen?
