I think you need to tell the X server/WM to never give the keyboard
window key focus. i.e Are you doing something like;
wm_hints = XAllocWMHints();
wm_hints->input = False;
wm_hints->flags = InputHint;
XSetWMHints (clutter_x11_get_display(),
clutter_x11_get_stage_window(),
wm_hints);
XFree(wm_hints);
If you dont do that, key presses will just get sent to the keyboard
itself and you probably dont want that.
