Title:
When switching desktops Hangouts always steals focus
Status in Unity:
New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I switch to a desktop that has the hangouts "window" on it, it
steals the focus.
Steps to repeat:
* Desktop 1 has a terminal and the hangouts window
* Type in the terminal
* Switch to desktop 2 (using CTRL+ALT+RightArrow)
* Switch back to desktop 1
* Continue typing in the terminal
Outcome: Nothing happens in the terminal because your focus is on
hangouts (as visible in the desktop title bar)
Expected: The terminal keeps focus
This is just one example (switching desktops) but there seems to be
lots of different ways in which hangouts steals focus.
It's not a traditional window so I don't see options to disable
"always on top" if that's what's happening.
I have tried to update the CCSM>General>Focus & Raise Behavior to set
up focus prevention to no effect.
