Comment 4 for bug 1479892

This is the output produced in the XSeesion log after I inserted the code.

unity-2d-shell: [WARNING] void ShellManager::forceDeactivateShell(ShellDeclarativeView*): No previously focused window found, use mouse to select window.

So yeah it looks like your first suggestion is correct. It's parent window is not getting the focus on initial start up. I will see if I can find out what the parent window is and see what I can do to fix it. Thanks again.
