Hi!
Sorry for the late answer. Here is the return for `vlc --version`. The
issue is relatively difficult to reproduce: I have a set of mkv/webm
files that do it all the times, but if I set-up VLC with other files
(mp3), the issue does not appear.
```bash
$ vlc --version
VLC media player 3.0.8 Vetinari (revision 3.0.8-0-gf350b6b5a7)
VLC version 3.0.8 Vetinari (3.0.8-0-gf350b6b5a7)
Compiled by buildd on lcy01-amd64-014.buildd (Sep 11 2019 11:39:37)
Compiler: gcc version 7.4.0 (Ubuntu 7.4.0-1ubuntu1~18.04.1)

I was also able to reproduce the issue with LibreOffice: I launched
LibreOffice, then switched workspace. Once LibreOffice was ready, it
appeared “by surprise” in the Alt+Tab menu of another workspace.
VLC and LibreOffice are both large softwares: maybe they both launch
some kind of global instance in addition to the windows, and it is this
global instance that trigger the Alt-Tab notification? I can’t tell,
apart from the fact that each time this happens, I’m being caught by
surprise
I attaching the logs. At the time 11:50, it was VLC doing the Alt+Tab
appearance in another workspace, and at 11:54, it was LibreOffice.
I will try to reproduce the issue in a newly created session. ☺
Have a nice day ☺
Martin.
