This is actually affecting a lot of other applications. See http:// ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?t=836370
In particular: OpenOffice, Pidgin, Skype - and a lot more. Somehow Firefox seems to be an exception (it works). This renders Alt-Tab unusable, as I have to switch windows manually with mouse.
