Bug Description

When I use virtual machine or remote desktop and those operating systems crash or froze the host system sometimes "loses" the keyboard. I must kill the VM or RD to have keyboard again.
I experienced this issue with Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 and mainly Windows as VM or RD.

Kernel version:
At least the series of 3.13 (64 bit) on both Ubuntu.

Unity versions:
Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS: 5.20.0-0ubuntu3
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS: 7.2.3-0ubuntu1

Compiz versions:
Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS: 0.9.7.12-0ubuntu4
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS: 0.9.11.2-0ubuntu1
