I can confirm this. I am *not* using focus follows mouse. Steps to reproduce (not 100%, it seems to come and go):
* Start Firefox on desktop 1, make sure unity launcher is visible * Ctrl+alt+right to desktop 2 * Start Qt Creator * Maximize window or move it so that it makes the launcher auto-hide * Select the editor, typing works. * Ctrl+alt+left to desktop 1 - Firefox gets focus * Ctrl+alt+right to desktop 2 - launcher starts to hide. Qt Creator cursor blinks briefly,, suggesting keyboard focus, but when launcher is done hiding the cursor disappears and keyboard input does not register. Clicking the window does not help, but switching to another app and then back does. It seems related to dock hide/unhide - if I move the QtC window so that it doesn't make the launcher hide (i.e. switching desktops keeps the launcher on the screen), the problem has never occured.
