I tried using setDescendantFocusability(FOCUS_AFTER_DESCENDANTS) on my
ActivityGroup layout, and then I got a different error message:

ERROR/AndroidRuntime(871): android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException:
Unable to add window -- token
android.app.localactivitymanager$localactivityrec...@4376ad40 is not valid;
is your activity running?

Any ideas?
