Bug Description

Dear Developers,

I hope report following issue with good place with HUD related:
I worked lot of time with Audacity, and HUD is helps my work absolute if for example I want fast search normalize or increasing volume menu items.
When I used HUD, I see a possible bug:
If HUD found right the want selecting menu item and I press ENTER key the result, the new opened dialog possible doesn't get focus and not activated. If I press ALT+F6 keystroke, the selected dialog is focused right.
I looked this problem for example with Gedit application, the result is equals and reproducable.

Reproducation steps:
1. Launch Gedit.
2. Press ALT key, and if you use english locale, type prefe string. HUD right found the edit menu/preferences menu item.
3. Press ENTER key.
The opened preferences dialog is not focused, you need activating ALT+F6 keystroke.
When I tested HUD, I using Orca Screen Reader, and used Unity 2d, so I don't no Unity 3D producing similar issue or not.
If I not use Orca screen reader and tryed the Gedit wrote test, I unable to moved preferences dialogue widgets until I not pressed ALT+F6 keystroke.
