Comment 2 for bug 934189

Issue worsened after latest updates (term.log), when closing an application also other keybindings aren't responding any longer, neither by left click on desktop or conky.
The <super> and ctrl+alt+arrow keys show no reaction like opening the launcher, dash or switching workspaces.
In order to make keybindings respond at all it needs an open application.
Since launcher is set to autohide it also means after login the user needs to push to left side in order to view the launcher and being able to open an application. The desktop simply has no focus after login.
