Looks like the culprit is gnome-screensaver-command which is set as
proximity command in blueproximity. When I run that command in a loop
(without running blueproximity) I get the same behavior that the menu in
OO opens and closes every 5 seconds.
Run the following batch script in a terminal
while the observation seems correct and since I've seen the
implementation in gnome-screensaver-command, I totally agree that the
defect is in gnome-screensaver-command.
However, this bugreport has been hijacked now since the original
reporter confirms that he doesn't experience the symptom that
You're right. Sorry. Someone already reported it earlier today: bug

In my case the bad boy is in package xdg-utils, ie. /usr/bin/xdg-
screensaver. It refuses to use dbus and runs gnome-screensaver-command

To disable that behaviour, run your app with
GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID='' xvdr

This has just started happening for me, and I'm not sure why. I've only
noticed it since the New Year. Not sure if I got a new version of
something then.
I'm using opneoffice-core 1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1 on amd64, karmic. I'm not
running totem, or xine. And it's not just closing menus, but (as noted
I've tracked this down to the app blueproximity, and will talk to the
developer(s) there. Definitely connected to screensavers, though.

I can confirm quitting blueproximity resolved this issue on my machine.

Same happens for me in totem-gstreamer 2.26.1-0ubuntu5 (Jaunty amd64).
It's not xine-lib.
The effect that made me notice was that in XUL-based apps (Firefox,
Thunderbird), pressing Alt causes any open menus to close. So while
Totem is playing, any Firefox menus will spontaneously close every 30
Further: the problem will not occur if one is running gnome-screensaver.
This is probably why the issue isn't being reproduced by everyone.
lib/totem-scrsaver.c looks for org.gnome.ScreenSaver on DBUS. If it
finds gnome-screensaver running, it sends an Inhibit message and stops
there. If it

Ubuntu Jaunty, AMD64, same issue. Please reopen.
Incidentally, to me this happens with me-tv, which uses the xine engine.
So I do not think that this is strictly a totem problem, but a libxine1
one.

To clarify, the alt key is application independent. I first noticed when
I was using MS Word in VMware, but it registers regardless of the
application being used. It's not limited to OpenOffice as the original
report suggests.

I'm using 8.04 32-bit on a Lenovo Thinkpad Z60m. I can confirm the
problem here, too. With Totem playing music, the alt key is registered
every 30 seconds. Closing Totem stops it from happening.
I'm using totem-gstreamer (/usr/bin/totem - /etc/alternatives/totem -
/usr/bin/totem-gstreamer)

I'm using totem-xine.
The thread above on ubuntuforums indicates one person is having the
problem with xine, not Totem.

Bugs,
Thanks for your report, Do you use totem-gstreamer or totem-xine? Is
this only reproducible on a 64bit environment? I've waited for about 3
minutes and nothing happens (I'm on 32bit installation though).

Confirming that this issue is still present in 8.04 / 64 bit.
Totem actually triggers the Alt key in Konqueror as well, and presumably
other apps.
