I upgrade to precise a couple of days ago. I do have this bug, but I don’t use unity! I use the static-app-switcher with compiz and gnome- panel.
Is it a general switcher-trap and only unities switcher was fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

[Test Case] Alt+Tab doesn't lose window focus --------------------------------- This tests ensures that a racing condition is not possible anymore when alt+tabing. Setup: #. Have 2 windows of different types open. (gedit, nautilus) Actions: #. Press quicky Alt+Tab. (so that the switcher window is not shown) #. Repeat 10 times. Expected Results: No window loses focuses at all. The panel should alway show the title of the window. [Regression Potential] Application switching in general. --- SRU TESTCASE: 1. open two terminals 2. quickly press alt-` a couple of times so that the switcher appears What should happen: no matter how many times you alt-` the focus should never be lost i.e. unity panel should not look like comment#6 -----Original Report----- Ever since upgrading to Unity 5.14.0-0ubuntu1 a few days ago, my alt+tabs have been constantly breaking. I use alt+tab quickly, fast enough to never see the switcher. The issue is that a good percentage of the time, the window is brought to the front and the focus is momentarily flickered onto the desired window but then the focus is entirely lost: Nothing is in the titlebar and any input goes nowhere. I don't recall any problems with the version previous to this update pushed (5.12-0ubuntu1.1) video demonstrating the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1035628/+attachment/3258477/+files/bug.webm Alt+` also loses focus regularly, even if there is only one window.
