As a workaround I updated to Thunderbird Beta (v. 97.0b3) and it does
not cause the alt-tab problem.

In Jammy Jellyfish (Thunderbird 91.5.0, GNOME Shell 40.5) when this bug
occurs it also cause the Thunderbird window to not display at all. The
application dock shows that it is open, but there is no way to get to it
unless you right click the dock icon and open a new window.

Hey there. This bug affects the pre-installed default email client of
Ubuntu, there's a fix available upstream now since a few weeks and the
next major Ubuntu release is scheduled four months in the future.
Can you please release the bugfix for the current release(s),
prettyplease?

There has been no update to the 40.x branch at
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/-/commits/upstream/40.x/ a
month since this was fixed and I had hoped that a Debian/Ubuntu team
member would notice it via this bug report.
Here's hoping for a fix in the 21.04 and 21.10 packages.

A fix has been merged upstream two months ago, see
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/4184 and
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2027
The fix was released with version 40.6, but Debian and Ubuntu haven't
updated the upstream package in their repository, yet.
That fix is being tracked in bug 1932328 so is already on its way to
Ubuntu eventually. Not sure if 21.04 will get the fix.

Can someone initiate that this fix is backported into Ubuntu 21.04?

I'm also affected by this bug when using Thunderbird but I've found a
workaround: Unpin Thunderbird (right click on the icon and "Remove from
Favorites"). After that you can still start Thunderbird manually, it
won't trigger this bug any more when it is just a normal application

It isn't intermittent for me either and happens at least three or four
times a day. I've now taken to using Thunderbird as little as possible,
and closing it as soon as I've read or sent my mail.

Hm, for me it's not intermittent at all. It happens as soon as I've sent
a single message using Thunderbird; Gnome Shell simply becomes unable to
keep track of Thunderbird windows, and the window switcher can't launch
any more.

The bug has disappeared for me, and that might explain why it's low
priority, as it is very intermittent and difficult to pinpoint a fix.

Can someone explain why this bug seems to be such low priority? It makes
using the Gnome Shell nearly impossible for anyone who uses Thunderbird,
as it stops any meaningful switching between windows, and massively
interferes with even the most basic workflow.

Thunderbird can take many seconds to start and close, so sometimes it
does really still have some windows half-prepared in memory but not
visible. That strange state might be a contributing factor.

I'll also confirm that I use Thunderbird and have had other strange
issues with Thunderbird windows not closing correctly after messages are
sent. The application can be completely killed yet Dock still indicates
that there are windows available (but no way to access them).

I can also confirm that this issue only happens when I have Thunderbird
open. On my system, Thunderbird opens messages in a new message window
and this is when the problem seems to occur, although it doesn't happen
every time.

Not sure whether the upstream issue, which is several months old, is the
same. The present one seems to have kicked in for several users at the
same time at the end of June 2021.
It looks like it is somehow connected to Thunderbird.
Also see this comment, for one way of reproducing it:
The issue has been reported upstream:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3456
so it would be best to keep the discussion there now.

Just to add something else I discovered, "Alt-`" (or what ever key might
be above tab) still works for me as expected to bring up the window
switcher and switch between same-application windows. Hmmm.
