You need to return FALSE from your event handler to tell Gtk+ to use the default handler. Basically: inspect the event and see if it interests you; if it does, do whatever you need and return TRUE to indicate the event has been handled; otherwise return FALSE and Gtk will try with the next handler installed. If I'm not mistaken, all events in Gtk behave like this.
