This bug was fixed in the package totem - 3.0.1-0ubuntu17
---------------
totem (3.0.1-0ubuntu17) precise; urgency=low
* debian/control.in:
- don't Build-Depends on libxtst-dev so the codepath generating fake key
events is disabled, those events lead to weird behaviours with
some applications or the unity hud (lp: #923644)
- drop the Build-Depends on individual girs, the libs depends on those
* debian/patches/git_commandfix_incorrect_free.patch:
- fix segfault with on line options use (lp: #860079, #884811, #917241)
[ Jeremy Bicha ]
* Drop coherence plugin description since the plugin has been
removed by GNOME. (LP: #827382)

Totem running in background causes menu of foreground application

Bug description:
Totem 3.0.1 uses xtest to simulate an ALT keypress every 30 seconds.
This interfers with programs that have they ALT-key bound to something
(like Opera) and more importantly will open HUD every 30s when playing
a movie.
--
To replicate play any movie in Totem (non-fullscreen) and open Opera. Just
use Opera for a minute and the (ALT-) menu will open. It seems like totem is
regularly sending a keycode so that the screensaver doesn't activate.
