I'm experiencing what I think is the same issue, although in my case it's complicated by running a multi-monitor setup.
Here's my config: 1. Two displays (Built-in laptop screen, and external monitor). 2. The monitor has 6 workspaces set up, and I have hotkeys set up to show different workspaces. 3. The built-in display does not have workspaces. 4. The "Primary" display is the external monitor. 5. Totem running (Ful-screen) on the built-in display/ 6. Application A running on workspace 1 on the external monitor. 7. Application B running on workspace 2 on the external monitor. 8. Give focus to application A. 9. Hit the keyboard shortcut to move to workspace 2. 10. Give focus to application B. 11. Hit the keyboard shortcut to move to workspace 1. 12. Expected behaviour: Application A has focus. Actual behaviour: Totem has focus. 13. Hit the keyboard shortcut to move to workspace 2. 14. Expected behaviour: Application B has focus. Actual behaviour: Totem has focus. Note: This only happens for me if totem is running full-screen. If it is not then focus functions as expected (IE I can't replicate the OPs exact issue). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1272131 Title: Totem regains focus on a window when it is not supposed to. Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Open Nautilus on a workspace, on the same workspace watch some media using Totem movie player. Task switch back to Nautilus then switch to another workspace. When coming back to the original workspace Nautilus should have focus. In this test case Totem always gains focus when it should not. Expected behaviour is to return to the original workspace with focus being on Nautilus as it was when that workspace was left.
