2013-08-29 04:06:18 Sridhar Dhanapalan description Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Firefox. I have a session that is restored on start-up, which contains multiple windows and tab groups. 2. Use it for a few minutes (the exact amount varies). 3. Switch to another Firefox window that is already open (don't open a new window). 4. Start typing - text, keyboard commands, etc. What I expect to see: My keystrokes should to to the window I just made active. What actually happens: My keystrokes go to the window I previously was in. If I want the keyboard focus to be on the window I just switched to, I need to: 1. Open a new window (Ctrl+N). 2. Immediately close that window. This gives the keyboard focus to the window that is now in front. I have to repeat these steps every time I want to change to another window - very annoying! There is no problem with other apps. This is a Firefox-specific problem. I have tried to selectively disable my extensions to see if one of them is the culprit. I have also turned off focus prevention in Compiz. No luck. I have this problem on two computers running Unity on Ubuntu 13.04 amd64. It seems to be a little similar to #589116 and #584513, but I do not think it is the same.
