Bug Description

When launching unity from a 4-finger tap, unity launches, as expected, but the home scope is not selected. In fact, no scope is selected, and searching has no effect since so scope is selected.

Steps to reproduce:
1) 4 finger tap a multi-touch enabled touchpad
2) Note Dash launches as expected
3) Try to search, note no results are shown and no scope is selected

Expected results:
Home scope is selected

Actual results:
No scope is selected, searching has no action until a scope is selected

Notes:
* Using xmir
* Launching from super key works as expected
